We had a great start to our vacation. Justin played in the Starbucks "Hot Java Cool Jazz" concert at the Paramount Theater in downtown Seattle. His Jazz band was 1 of 5 featured Western Washington high school jazz bands.
Justin and his band were awesome and it was great to see him excel on such a grand stage. After his performance last year's national jazz instructor of the year asked "How long you been strumming that ax?" Justin told him he taught himself to play guitar and just began lessons is Sept '08. He told Justin that he has got amazing talent and to come see him in a couple of years- "I know a few people ;-) and I will get you gigs." Justin said it was the best time of his life performing on the stage in front of over 3,000 people. We are very proud :-)
After Justin's performance we gathered him and his gear and it was off to the airport for our trip to Puerto Rico. We met up with the rest of the family at the airport with plenty of time to spare. I told Amy that we have to play the lottery because I can get use to this!
