Monday, August 12, for our "home evening" activity we left home and went to listen to some jazz.
Mr. VP, my high school choir director, is not only one of the best directors ever, but also a fabulous guitarist. He performs in a variety of settings, but probably his main vehicle is the Van Paepeghem Quartet. His wife sings, and is one of the most amazing jazz vocalists around. Their bassist and drummer are also a couple of the top jazz musicians in Idaho.
They were playing at the Sandbar, an outdoor restaurant at the Riverside Hotel.
We had dinner there while listening to them play.
After dinner we walked along the Greenbelt to a spot where they have the river dammed to make a flume for kayaking and surfing.
We watched the surfers and kayakers for a while...
...skipped some rocks...
...and enjoyed the scenery along the river.
It was a fun evening.
