It's time to start a blog

Hi, I'm the Pianoman, and welcome to my retirement blog.  I retired in 2022, and thought that starting a blog might be a good idea to keep track of my various hobbies.  But I procrastinated, life got in the way, and the blog got stuck in the never-ending stack of projects.

The catalyst for finally getting the blog rolling was the ACTC production of Chess at the Lyceum Theater of Vanguard University, for which I was music director.  I spent a lot of time on this score, more than any other musical I've worked on, and I thought it would be a good idea to get all those customizations captured in some format that could be useful to other music directors.  Our production was pretty solid, and it deserves to be preserved in some way.

Besides musical theater, my other retirement hobbies include gardening, genealogy, golf, and the Hidden Mickey Wiki.  I'm hoping I can use this blog to help with those other hobbies as well.

Let the blogging commence!
