It’s that time of year again — bluegrass festivals. The festival of choice this year was Guthrie’s Oklahoma International Bluegrass Festival, which, for a bluegrass festival in Oklahoma, isn’t half-bad.

- Excellent musicians, some seen before
- Overpriced food, guaranteed to not be good for you
- Warm weather, when the day previously it was chilly
- Rain.

Abby participated in the random band jam this year. Here she is performing with her random bandmates:
