Hey Guys,
Just wanted to say hello and that I hoped you were enjoying the return of Spring as much as I am.  Being outside, enjoying the fresh air, and wearing shorts again consistently puts a smile on my face.  This year is no different. 

Our return to the LA Book Festival was once again a great event.  I'm amazed and impressed by the dedication our fans show by returning year after year.  I guess it's nice to know that we're not the only ones making the annual trip to the UCLA campus ; )  The stage was set up a bit differently which gave us more room both onstage and backstage.  We got so see some of our old friends and even caught a glimpse of Henry Winkler (The Fonze) and Julie Andrews!!!!  I wanted to ask Julie if she still knew how to fly from her Mary Poppins days, but alas she was quite busy and we never really had the chance to speak.  Regardless, it was great to be back and see all our old friends again.

Our quick trip to Busch Gardens Virginia was another nice repeat visit.  While the stage couldn't have been more perfect for our show, but weather was not quite on our side.  It was chilly, windy, and rainy at times.  Oh well, I guess Mother Nature was not in the mood for Hi-5 that weekend.  Even so, a small but dedicated group came out and we really had a great time.  One of the bonuses of playing Busch Gardens is going on all of the rides.  My favorite was Apollo's Chariot so if you ever get a chance to visit, you must check it out.

My wedding is coming up very quickly and I'll be trying to fill the next few weeks before our Canadian tour getting everything ready.  I'll be painting, gardening, chopping, planning, and many more 'ing's before all is said and done.  I'm quite sure I can get it all done in time, but until I get started I'll be a little nervous.  Jenn is still quite busy with Tarzan, so it'll be me and the squirrels up there trying to get all this done.  Maybe I'll make some new furry friends???   I guess I could tell them I played a squirrel once on Hi-5 and that could be my ice breaker.  I'll let you know how it goes.

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well and I'm really looking forward to see a lot of your faces while we're out on the road.  Be well and keep in touch.
