We Made It!
February 22, 2008
After experiencing incredible traffic on I-35 through Fort Worth, we made it onto the campus of Baylor University just in time! Our students, along with nearly 275 other singers, worked hard all evening in preparation for our Sunday concert. Everyone is pretty tired, so we will all be going to bed in the next few minutes. Check back tomorrow for more updates and pictures.
