I had a great two weeks on the “other” side of the river from my first job in St. Paul. The Minnesota Orchestra gave a warm welcome and however things go from here, I’ll have fond memories of our concerts. And as a bonus, Akiko and Fleur got to join me for the first week, although Akiko had to pull “dog duty” most of the time, as Fleur couldn’t be left alone in our hotel room. From Fleur’s point of view, it was an amazing time, as she was never alone! She also got to run around Lake Harriet and explore several parks with water, which is a thrill for her.
