After the CBJ Flamenco Ensemble Concert at Pistol River Concert Assocation we had a late night of delicious food, music and dance at our friend and talented Luthier’s house, Les Stansell and his wife Mary. Visit Stansell Guitars to learn more about his amazing guitars.

The next morning we stopped by Les’ awesome guitar studio. With Grant & Terry outside of Les’ workshop.
Chris is a proud owner of a Les Stansell Guitar.

After the very successful CBJ Flamenco & Friends concert at SOU on Friday, January 14th, we traveled to Pistol River the following day for an evening concert with Pistol River Concert Association. While on the road we took a pit stop to explore the Redwoods in Northern California. Here are a few pictures from our time there.
