Timberline Lodge Mountain Music Festival, Labor Day, September 3rd

Timberline Lodge Mountain Music Festival, Labor Day, September 3rd.

I hope you all can join us for another fun Labor Day spent at the beautiful and historic Timberline Lodge.  

Linda and myself will be hosting a jam in the back patio starting around 11:30am.  Mountain Honey is very excited to be performing as well.  We go on stage at 12:30pm at the outdoor amphitheater. This is a free event.  

There may be a couple of rooms still available at the Lodge if you would like to spend the night.  Jamming goes into the evening by the fireplaces. Hope to see you there! Greg.
