On the weekend I had the pleasure of attending the 4th Annual Mesa Union Music Festival.
This music festival is special for me for a multitude of reasons, the first was the day my daughter Sylvia received her first college acceptances. That was a very important milestone in our life together. I recall it like yesterday because the day was very magical spending time feeling that she might get to go realize some of her dreams.
So what a nice way to find yourself watching and enjoying on May 1st.
A day dedicated to the music of children, and adults, all working happily to something that transforms us.
The festival was the vision of the leader of Mesa Union (and someone I'm married to....) and features lots of local bands, talent with a great line-up all day to enjoy community music.
I took these clips with my camera as I was there, but I missed things going to pick up my son and dump some off my little camera to get more.....
But here is the festival. You have to be hardcore to watch this entire clip show. But I will watch and remember a lovely day I got OUT. Yeah!
Let's see if I can put in the line up:
