Back in October I attended my son's recital at the UNC Greensboro College of Music's Organ Hall. Which is home to a pretty impressive (wait for it) organ. Getting there as early as I did had a couple of distinct advantages. First, it allowed me to get some great photos along Tate Street, and to make a stop at my favorite coffee house -- Tate Street Coffee. But I also had the chance to get into the hall early and take some detailed photos of the aforementioned organ. And this is one of 'em.

My son the music major returned home in the Spring semester of his junior year, leaving the remote and frozen environs of Potsdam, NY and the Crane School of Music for the closer-to-home University of North Carolina at Greensboro. In April he played his first recital at UNC-G followed shortly by his first gig with the school's Symphonic Band. This shot was from the former event obviously.

And about the same time he returned from the North Country, the Hurricanes returned to the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since winning The Cup in 2006. After knocking off two of the top three seeds in the East in dramatic fashion (a pair of Game 7 wins, one on a buzzer beater and the other in overtime) Carolina ran into the juggernaut that was Pittsburgh, the eventual winner of the Stanley Cup. But until The Penguins marched into town, the middle-of-the-night welcome home parties at RDU International were in full swing each time the team returned home from the road.

And two days after Scott Walker banged a rebound past Tim Thomas to chase the top-seeded Boston Bruins from the playoffs, I was listening to the radio re-broadcast while on a photo tour with the Tonka Unit. Stop number one on the tour was the Antique British Car Show hosted by North Hills... what do they call it now that the mall isn't there anymore? Anyway, I question the antiquity of some of the cars on hand (somehow a 2006 Lotus doesn't seem like it would qualify) but while pondering if I had ever had occasion to use the plural of "Lotus" (I don't think I have) I caught this collection of 60s vintage MG A's.

Thematic Photographic 79: "Elsewhere" v.5.0 - He Cleans Up Nice

"UNC-Greensboro Symphonic Band"

I could scarcely go through a week's worth of "Elsewhere" without a trip to Greensboro could I? (Trust me, I couldn't.) This particular trip was about hearing the musical stylings of the Symphonic Band at UNC Greensboro which includes my son on the alto saxophone. Gone are the days when school concerts are "endured" rather than "enjoyed". For all you band parents out there, I promise you... they really do get better. And best of all, once they get to this level? No more band candy!
