Coming or Going?
This month has flown by, with so many events, so much travel and so much production. My schedule this month has been crazy and incredible. Each weekend I have been out of town. Sure some has been for family fun and some work and some both! The travel alone is doable. But when you add the fact that we are in the middle of producing new “Signing Time!” shows AND I broke my arm last month AND the girls are out of school. Can someone please schedule me a nap?
Here’s the play by play:
Arcade Fire Concert
Weekend 1
Rachel and Aaron go to San Francisco, CA
Fisherman’s Wharf fried shrimp. Ghirardelli Square ice cream sundae. Arcade Fire concert at Berkeley. Aaron plays basketball with the band before the show. (Probably helped that I’m related to Win and Will)
Rachel Coleman on Billboard in TexasSigning Time with Dan Zanes
Weekend 2
Rachel, Aaron and Leah go to Abilene, TX
The Grace Museum, Kidzfest. Incredible hospitality and tons of fans. I’m on a billboard. Performed with Dan Zanes. Texas salsa and steaks. Tried hominy. (Hi Dennis and Stacey!!!)

Weekend 3
The 4 Colemans go to Carolina Beach, NC
Friend’s 40th birthday surprise party. Collecting shells on the beach. Key Lime Tarts at the Blue Water Grill. Tried fried okra and hush puppies. (Happy Birthday Kelly!)
Weekend 4
Rachel and Renee go to Indianapolis, IN
WFYI PBS event - I’m told to prepare for HOT HOT weather yet had pouring rain. More rain. Fabulous “Signing Time!” fans stay for both shows in spite of pouring rain. Great event! Missed my flight home.
This Weekend
4 Colemans and Renee go to Las Vegas NV
KLVX PBS Ready To Learn Event - preparing for HOT weather again; I am considering having Lucy join me on stage for a song. Will be a great event for all! Taking the girls to see “Mama Mia!” Lucy will probably sing through the entire show. Will have an In-N-Out Burger.
