Lots of fog and rain rolled in during our last hike in Aspen. It was cold, but worth it when we jumped into the hot tub after wards. We are getting in our ethnic foods before we leave Colorado. We've eaten Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and Mexican all in the last week. When we arrive in Kent tomorrow evening, it will be either home cooked meals or hamburgers. Can't wait.
Our finals days in Aspen have been amazing. We performed at a beautiful house on Monday, set up by our sponsors, Susan and John Rothchild. We've had the privilege of meeting some wonderful people who have shown us incredible support. There have been some challenging hikes including Aspen Mountain and Crested Butte, and early tomorrow, we are heading towards the mountain trails again. Our final masterclass was today with the American String Quartet and we all head back to Ohio on Monday.
It was Eric's birthday on the 29th and Andrea bought a giant cake that took us about 5 days to finish. We've been having a great time working and relaxing in Aspen. We are in our last month of summer before we head back to Ohio. We have a few gigs coming up playing for restaurants and churches, but other than that, we are busy with our new repertoire.
