Sarah's Going Away Party

A little while ago we found out that Sarah, our concert mistress, was moving to Maryland to get her masters degree.  Her husband found a job there already and has been living there for a few months and now that the cycle is winding down she will be joining him.  I have to admit, even though I don't know her real well, I was pretty sad.  I was just starting to get to know her and even though she is really intense she's very kind as well.  Friends threw her a going away party and I was lucky enough be able to attend most of it.  It was fun talking with people outside of orchestra and meeting their spouses and learning who they are.  I got to meet Andrew's fiancee and see him be silly! It was kinda weird but endearing all at the same time.  It's like seeing your teachers or professors in the real world living their lives, because somehow we all think their life starts and ends in the classroom.  haha.








Best of luck Sarah! It has been an honor sharing a stage with you for these few years.
