Best wishes as Wednesday winds down! Where do I even begin to catch you up on the adventures of the last few days--an online journal is a good place to start.
First off, a shoutout to my friends of the Algoma Community Band, especially director Tom Mueller, who hosted me at their rehearsal tonight as they're preparing for their big performance coming up in a few short weeks. It was great meeting so many of you, and thank you for allowing me to speak to your group! We did some recordings and an interview and looking forward to posting that soon.
Since the late 1970's, Algoma Community Band has brought music to the lakeshore. Playing concerts year-round, building up local talent as well as drawing musicians from surrounding counties, ACB. is an important part of the rich history of Algoma. ACB also provides scholarships to students who desire to pursue music, helping them with college expenses. What an awesome organization!

Over the course of these last few weeks, it been really cool how many of you take the time each day to vote for me. It really makes my day getting a quick email or FB message or text with your encouragement and thoughtfulness. And whether its a friend or stranger anywhere in town here, your smile and a few simple but powerful words: "I've been voting for you" really lift my heart.
Also, wanted to say hello and thank you to my friends in Alaska who have been supporting me in my run to be the new CW14 Star! I didn't realize until tonight that 'the Last Frontier' was a VOTE KURT state. As your state flower is the Forget-Me-Not, I really appreciate you remembering a Wisconsin guy during voting.
