The weather was great today.  So was the turnout.  Chris Lyons counted 222 people.  It was a great Concert.  Even the DVD machine co-operated for Twyla's solos. (except for a remote control number button - quickly remedied).   With that many people seated in the Cathedral, the inside temperature definitely rose and some doors & windows had to be opened up during the intermission.  The atmosphere was great.  The reception that followed hosted by the St. Alban's Parish Life committee was a happy noisy crowd of enthusiastic supporters.  If was fun to mingle and talk to so many people.  Diane offered to drive Mary Essel home and look after the cat if I stayed and helped in the kitchen.  Did I have a choice? :)  I am hoping to track down some digital pictures of the evening which I will post with this report later.  A report needs to be submitted to the Diocesan Web page and the Saskatchewan Anglican Newsletter.
