MusicFest posters going out today!


And the website www.wildernestmusicfest.com is already up!

Louisiana Iris



We've told the irises that they can have the whole lower pond now and they are working hard to fill it up.  I also moved some cuttings to the BOD pond and they are doing well - even after last years' drought that almost dried up the pond.

I think this is the worst flooding we've seen in Jacobs' Creek!

The pond from the BOD.  You can see the "V" support at the end of the zip line if you look very carefully on the left side of the picture.

"New Creek" - new because it wasn't there before!

"Lake Oscars' Pasture"
We had about 5 inches of rain in a little less than 12 hours.  This is as close as I could get to the west bridge without wading more than shoe top height.  The bottom posts of the stairs show almost two feet of water depth. Along the path to the Treehouse, the water is over 200 feet wide!.

MusicFest


There's been a lot happening with the MusicFest and we're now beginning to put some check marks on the to-do list.  The website is up, tickets are designed and ordered, the Chapel Worship Service program is in final draft.  The community is being very supportive and we are signing up some sponsors!!  Next on the list is working on the CD cover - looks like either a six-panel or the standard jewel case with an insert. Lots to say!  Gus is still working on the musician line-up but we've already got enough confirmed to put on a great show!  And still a lot happening that I can't put out here yet.  My blog used to be a personal/family thing but having referred to the MusicFest in previous posts Google is now sending quite a few people here.  If you're one of those I hope you enjoy your visit but note that you can get all the info on the new website.  The page up above is a link.  And remember to check the Crossroads Music FB page for future updates.

And if any of you are coming up on retirement and wondering what you're going to be doing with yourself, my recommendation is to find yourself a Gus (Gustafson) and put on a music event.  You will stay busy!
