Yes, I love TEXAS!! My "roots" grow very deep here!! This is where our

family were "bred and born". This is also where our family was "born again

of water and spirit". It's home..for now anyway!!!

Whoda thunk it?

Sounds like everybody is pretty much on track but I never would have thought that a sax would be made out of wood.

I can see a flute being made out of wood... but a sax? Wow...

Here is what Wikipedia says.

A woodwind instrument is a wind instrument in which sound is produced by blowing against an edge or by a vibrating reed, and in which the pitch governed by the resonant frequencies of an enclosed air column. As the name implies, such instruments were originally made of wood, but some modern woodwinds, such as the saxophone, are made of other materials.

If I understood correctly, the Boston Brass have played at GC. Also

Sis. Kathy Hernandez, maybe by herself. Someone else with more

knowledge about this perhaps could comment!

Yes, Sister Hernandez played last year with a couple of other ladies. They were very good.
