Recently Sue Smith put some of her favorite MIR memories up on her blog, and I thought I'd share some of them here with you all. As many of you know, Sue is an accomplished songwriter, longtime teacher at MIR, and head of the Write About Jesus workshops. Here are a few snippets from her blog:
GMA announced last week that this will be the last year for Music in the Rockies. I’m sad about that. I’ve gone to Estes Park for nearly 20 years. I’ve sort of lost track of exactly how many.
I’ve stayed up in the beauty of Windcliff, and I’ve stayed in a dorm-like place we laughingly called Green Acres. I’ve stayed with friends and with relative strangers.
Of course one of my memories of Estes will always be all the times I have had to take Dave Clark to the Estes Park Hospital emergency room. Seriously, the man is a walking disaster. He should not be allowed to travel alone.
Some of the best concert moments I remember involved Janet Paschal, Larnelle Harris, and Cindy Morgan. I was sitting next to Joel one night when Cindy sang. After she finished, he sighed and said, “I’m done” because she was so perfectly wonderful.
I’ve had the privilege of hearing quite a few of my songs sung at Estes, and I will always treasure those moments.
