River Concert: Brass and Blues ... Plus Fireworks

Defying the possibility of thunderstorms, the July 1st River Concert went on with occasional strong gusts of wind and a little light rain.  We even had sun for a sunset.

The concert at St. Mary's College of Maryland was held Friday on the green as usual and featured Blues musician Linwood Taylor, trumpeters Amy McCabe, Zachary Silberschlag and Jeffrey Silberschlag, trombonist Bryan Bourne and saxophonist Rick Humphries.  Some of the music included "Trumpeter's Holiday", "Spinning Wheel" by Blood, Sweat and Tears, "Uptown Funk" and Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture"

And Fireworks!!!!!

Tall ships

I forgot to share some photos of the Tall ships that visited Solomon's Island on June 20th for the 1812 celebration.  The weather was rather gray, but the ships were interesting.
