Roadtrip! Day 2
Got to Jason's place with just enough time to change and get to the ceremony. Alan and Heather's wedding was behind the Cleveland Museum of Art, right next to a large lagoon. Alan and I were classmates in college, and it turned out that our former professor and longtime friend, Bruce Egre, was officiating the ceremony. He'd become an ordaned minister for the occasion, and had finished the last of the necessary paperwork that morning! It was a short ceremony, but very beautiful and emotional.
After that, we headed over to Alan and Heather's backyard for the reception, which ended all-too-soon, so Nicki, Jason and I headed over to a local jazz bistro called "Night Town", where we ran into another old friend of mine, Bob Ferrazza. Bob is a fantastic jazz guitarist -- teaches guitar at Interlochen School of the Arts and Oberlin College, and still plays and tours with a number of jazz heavyweights. I engineered his first album for the Koch Jazz label, and since I've been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to have him play on a few of my jazz charts.
Saturday morning and we're back on the road -- headed to Traverse City, MI, to celebrate my mum's 60's birthday.
