It's snowing. They tell us that we'll get a couple of inches before it stops. So far, it's been melting on the roads, so I have hopes that it won't be too fraught driving to rehearsal tonight.

There will be a guest conductor in (she'll be directing one of the pieces at Hill in May), and the piece we're doing is one we haven't even looked at since the concert. whoops! (OTOH, we _did_ play it at the concert, so we were pretty well-rehearsed on it.)

In penny-wise and pound-foolish, the maestro wants to borrow a keyboard from someone and move it to Hill with the rest of the percussion gear, thus increasing the size of the truck we need to rent; *and* complicating the logistics immensely, unless one of the Farmington schools has one they'd be willing to lend us. I don't know what Hill charges for using the house piano, but it'd have to be over $1K for it to be even the slightest bit logical to deal with the mess of using a borrowed keyboard. I have told the board "sometimes, the right solution is to throw money at a problem. Rent the piano from Hill, I'll pay for it."
