Local concert series at Cedaredge

The summer bi-weekly concert series at Pioneer Village's Chapel of the Cross in Cedaredge is over.  We made it up for 5 of them and totally enjoyed ourselves....well, I probably enjoyed it more than Karl. There were several family groups and those were my favorite.  The final concert was on a Thursday, mostly the ones that looked interesting to me had been on Sunday afternoons, and that worked out better in our schedule, as well.  But the finale looked worth making the trip on a week day evening.  So glad we went.  Bluegrass... Momma played bass, Daddy sang tenor, and daughters age 11 and 7 joined right in there.  The three vocalist switched around singing lead, but the harmony stayed tight and true.  Fantastic.  The little one is learning mandolin and played along for one piece; the older girl played "fiddle" intros, bridges, limited back up, and a few solos.  Totally delightful.  Family also includes a couple boys, the 9 year old warmed up the audience with piano for 20 minutes before program and took the bass over from Mom for one selection on clowned around.  The other boy was maybe 4 years old and was just along for the ride.
