Choir Picnic

Today was our annual choir/worship team picnic. I've sung in church choirs almost continuously for over 45 years now, the last 10 at the Village Church of Barrington, and this picnic is one of my favorite social events with the group. I helped with the grilling this year, and here I am with our hostess and soprano, Avis, and Mark, a fellow member of the bass section, who has just finished setting up volleyball, croquet, boche ball, and bag toss courts in the several acre back yard in Long Grove.



The crowd is under the big top enjoying respite from the intense sun as they eat from the abundant food supply and converse with friends.
