My son Ryan is a pretty good musician. He’s a percussionist in the Junior High School Band and plays drums in the school system’s Jazz Band. That’s pretty cool, because the Jazz Band is made up of kids from all of the city’s Junior High Schools. You have compete for a spot. He is active in the YMCA’s Music Clubhouse where he plays drums and also messes around with a few obscure instruments. He owns and plays an african Udu Drum and a didgeriedoo.

Anyway, the other night, Ryan played in his last Spring Concert with the Junior High Band. I brought my camera (as usual) and managed to catch this shot of Ryan playing the chimes.
