The Gap School

Compilation of The Gap School artists

For several weeks I have been in the throws of an application process to be the Music Specialist at The Gap School here in Sarasota. It is an opportunity I became aware of through a friend in The Florida Voices, a music ensemble Garland and I have been members of for 3 years.

The Gap School is a private special needs school for 7-18 year old students. They are expanding their curriculum for the 42 students to include music education, and as part of the process I had to develop a proposal including program and expenses for the Board of Directors.

Beginning August 18, (with two days off to take Emma to Hope!), I will be teaching on Mondays and Wednesdays at this unique school! I'm so excited, because in spite of the Next Food Network dream, THIS is my primary passion--music with kids. With all the changes at Riverview, this is an exciting and thrilling venture I'm about to begin!!

Who Is The Next Food Network Star?

Alright....

I was disappointed to see everyone stay this week.

Who do you think is the one left standing?

Adam, Lisa, or Aaron?

They Grow 'Em Big Down Here

There is a famous weatherman in Sarasota, Florida.

The local news station, SNN, broadcast this...

It's always good for a laugh!


This reminds me of the bugs at the cottage and some other people I know! :)

Two City Boys

Garland thinks these two look alike...



What about you?

Is my cousin Nathan a twin of Bobby Flay?
