We had a great concert in Winter Park last night. The concert was sponsored by the San Pedro retreat center and they did a great job. Probably the hardest thing all day was getting the truck & bus to the church without incuring too much tree damage. It was a pretty full house of around 900 enthusiastic people. I was just listening to the archive recording and am still surprised by the crowd response. If you were there, thanks for coming. If you had any trouble hearing, I apologize. St. Margaret Mary is a beautiful contemporary church, but it’s a cavernous acoustically challenged space. I can only assume from the crowd reaction, and hearing people sing along, that most people were able to hear well enough.
Tom’s friend Chris Gunty from the Florida Catholic paper came out to visit and took some great pictures. Chris was kind enough to share the pictures with us and I’ve included a couple here.
We’ve moved on to St. Augustine now where we have a bit of time to rest before a concert at the Cathedral Tuesday evening. I had dinner tonight at a place called Son of a Fish on Aviles street. A small, non touristy, place that seemed to be respected by locals. It looks like there’s much to see and do here but it’s quite crowded. I’m wondering if it wouldn’t be a nice place to visit a bit off season.
We’ve still got a few more concerts in this leg so please try to come out and see us if you can. Pray for us too as we move on. The road can wear you down. Terry and Viola have both been feeling ill this week and could use your prayers.
Don’t forget to leave a comment to say hi and be sure to tell your friends about the tour and the blog.
