A Jazz bar

 
This is a jazz bar in downtown Chicago at State and Cermak...called Reggie's. It is in what we call a "changing neighborhood".....and was actually very nice once we made it inside....

Merry Christmas!

I went downtown Chicago the other night-after one snow storm and before the next!- to hear Bin play his tuba for his senior recital. Not sure what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised at how nice a tuba can be. This photo is the one part where he played with an ensemble. I wish I could capture the music but that would require a different type of camera!
(Bin is the one on the end with the TUBA (lol) and he is a friend of my Korean foreign exchange daughter, SeaKyung. Interestingly, his parents in Beijing have had my son, Greg, over for dinner and I have had Bin for the American holidays...it is a small world isn't it?)
