One treat at work today is that my freind Chris from River Valley Tech center braught one of his tech ed classes to Beta. I’ve worked with Chris for many years on FIRST robotics. I’ve\u00a0 helped him gwet grants from VASE which i’ve organized for the past 9 years.. (luckily, i’ve found a replacement ~!) . He kindly put VASE and FIRSTinVT logos on the students shirts . He also has drone racing teams, submarine competitions and al sorts of other maker teams for his students. .. I helped my friend Sarah give a tour

Later after work.. and after mandolin lesson, Rusty told me about a very cool mandolin (etc) concert that was about to happen in the Congo (congregational church).\u00a0 which was where we were standing.\u00a0 \u00a0!\u00a0 The show was Matt Flinner and Joe Walsh. Matt is (I think) a local guy who plays banjo. mandolin and guitatr. Joe is a professor at teh Berkeley school of music in Boston and plays mandolin, mandola and mandocello. It was an amazing show with a bunch of blugrass standards, americana and jazz. They told soem fun stories..a nd did a heatfelt salute to\u00a0 Don.. the leader of the Valley Stage org that has organzied these events for many years. This was to be the last concert in richmond after 10 years(1) of shoes. Don is moving the shows down to middlebury for personal reasons..\u00a0

lots of love for Don in the room\u00a0
Lots of freinds of our also in the room (DIanes still in portland \/\/ she would have liked seeinf how full the room was with folks we know from town)\u00a0
