[Dixielandjazz] San Diego Festival

[Thompson]

I won't take up everyone's time with lots of words about the San Diego Festival.  I will say that some of the best musicians were here.  The four days went by way too fast!  So much credit goes to Hal Smith and others who brought it all together.

There was a 14 year old named Cloee who sat in with several bands who was AMAZING!  She was not timid and traded 4's with anyone who offered...including Draga.

We managed a small F2F Saturday morning with about 6 or 7 people showing up.  So much fun to meet new faces but old names!

We woke to rain this morning, but the sun appears to be coming out now after Noon.  Glad it held off while we were out walking across the property of Town and Country on the way to the Convention Center!
