What a great afternoon!

Chef Jeff laid out a terrific spread, like usual, and so we feasted very well.

David was his usual droll and inventive self, so we got to hear several fun anecdotes mixed in with his musical alchemy.

The crowd played a good part too, contributing to the air of mirth surrounding the entire event.

Thank you sir! May I look forward to another?
