Picked up this Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta B 6x6cm camera. I have some Porta 400 to try with it. Seems to be in pretty good shape, so I’m interested to see how it goes.

I haven’t been playing sousaphone much the last few months, but I’m picking it back up again and have started to work on some exercises. I’m wanting to play sousaphone at Tuba Christmas this year, after playing euphonium the previous two years.

Feels weird to not have Solar or Lower Decks in production anymore. So proud of what we accomplished on both shows in very different ways. Thank you to everyone on both productions, and to all the fans who tuned in!!

This is a pic after the FC2 team lost in the US Open Cup last year. He not only came over to sign autographs for the kids but also got the rest of the team to do it too. So happy he scored the winner last night.
