Day 228 2015: On the road...

Day 228: ...again

Another day out with the orchestra today...there seems to be a run of concerts of late. This time, we were invited to play out at a Stanthorpe winery, Channon Wines. In a big shed. On a large property. 

We were well-looked after. There was a lovely audience. Yes, there was an early start (8.30am departure) and a late finish (8.00pm return) on a big bus and in between a nice lunch, a good concert, a little wine-tasting (just a leetle)...and about 30 minutes between rehearsal/sound check and actual concert. 

Lots of lovely country things to photograph...

And miniature horses...

The grass is greener on the other side...
There was something quite calm and relaxed about the whole place...I'm sure there's a lot of paddling like ducks underneath the surface but as a way of life? It seemed pretty good. I expect we'll be there again one day.
