I will be on a blogging vacation until the end of the month.

Louisa leaves in 13 days for the Northfield Youth Choirs’ trip to Oregon.  Thirty-eight members of the Anima and Troubadours choirs will participate in the prestigious Pacific International Children’s Choir Festival (PICCFEST), held on the campus of the University of Oregon in Eugene.

A year ago my parents and I traveled to Crookston, the northwestern Minnesota town where my musical great-grandparents, G. Oliver and Islea Riggs, settled at the turn of the last century.

Our trip had many great moments, including – not necessarily in this order – sampling the chocolate covered potato chips at Widman’s, finding photos of G. Oliver’s bands at the historical society, and marveling at the downtown architecture.
