day five: beatrice

The Grand View Choir made the jump to Beatrice, Nebraska (make sure you pronounce it bee-at-rihs, unlike me for half the trip...). Upon arrival at St. John Lutheran Church, we had an hour to explore the church, relax, or check out the neighborhood. Most of the choir took the opportunity to explore, while some hung back and did hair while watching A Very Potter Musical.
We had a little bit of an off start to the concert, but after dedicating intermission to focusing on the task at hand, we had another successful concert.
Dr. Duffy said, "We had a rocky start, but you did a great job getting it together and pulling it together for a great concert."
That night, the girls and three lucky guys from the choir were treated to a stay in the Victorian Inn Hotel - many members of St. John's were either elderly or had small children at home so they weren't able to host students for the night, but were more than willing to donate for hotel rooms. Although I did miss being spoiled by host families, it was a nice change-up from the routine.

We're on our way to my good 'ol home town of Fort Dodge, now.  New posts will be sure to come when we arrive in Fort Diggity.  :)
