Greetings from St. Mark's

Quickie, just got home and I have to get up early on Sunday. I had a nice Yom Kippur, though all the spiritual accounting I did was in my head -- I had to pick up a prescription in Bellevue, so we went to the Bellevue Botanical Garden first and stopped at the PCC for food, and in the evening we had tickets to see Vienna Teng at St. Mark's Cathedral, which has fabulous acoustics and lets people sit on blankets in the front like it's an outdoor venue. 

We had reserved seats, which are more comfortable, but we had a picnic for dinner before the concert started. Vienna started with "Harbor," "Hymn of Acxiom," "Level Up," and "Stray Italian Greyhound," then played half the show with Founders, who are classically trained and did a great mix of her songs and theirs (some of her older, jazzier compositions; she had played the newest ones earlier, and their version of Scheherazade). Here are a few photos:
