So here’s a quick update… The month of June was full of traveling. I had gone to Buffalo, Fort Lauderdale, and then finally Lake George, NY during three out of the four weekends. The two latter getaways were tiki festivals—Hukilau and Ohana: Luau at the Lake—where I participated for the first time as a music vendor and attendee along with my husband and Waitiki bandleader, Randy. Not having to deal with the stress of performing and traveling with instruments, I actually enjoyed the nice change. We did surprisingly well in our sales of CD albums, vinyls, comic books, and other related merch. For those who don’t know, Waitiki 7′s new album came out on June 7th and is selling like hotcakes!

The weekend that I managed to stay in Boston was also eventful with super nice weather. My brother who had just moved to Providence, made his visit for the weekend, and that coincided with a visit from my cousin’s family, the Davis’s.
My cousin Cathy is a budding professional photographer, and has her own business: Cathy Clicks Photography. She does a lot of her artistic work in Maine capturing young love and families, but is also interested in traveling and working with musicians and working professionals on the side. We had a great photo shoot in the North End, which had really nice backdrops for shots. Her beautiful pictures can be found throughout this site. I hope you like her style as much as I do, and if you do, don’t hesitate to contact her based on my referral.
I’ve also been really happy with the student recitals at Bradford. The quality has definitely gone up not only in terms of student performances, but also the organization and expectations of teacher, student and families. Congrats to all my students who performed and I look forward to the next one!
