Ever Expanding
=====================================================

Thank you to those who attended last week’s kickoff session at 353;
thank you to those who wished they could be there but couldn’t; thank
you to those who love jazz and music in general and support live music
whenever you can.

What does this have to do with an expanding universe? It means that
things are always moving, changing, in flux, and it reminds us not to
become attached, and also to appreciate what’s here now!

Hopefully we can see you soon.
