splinterfest


rachel checks out one of the legacy phoenix models.


when he isn't riding his mountain bike he helps build pipe organs. here jon explains the innards of one of the smaller models.


alix and lauren get the lowdown on pipe construction.


hmmm, looks like alix and lauren beat us out there.


heading south on the jamaica trail.

on sunday rachel and i rode south of town to attend Splinterfest (aka the Bedient Pipe Organ company's open house). we wen't the only ones to bike to the event (we ran into alix and lauren as they were going for a road ride and told them about it so they met us out there). it was interesting to learn about all the craftsmanship that goes into building these timeless instruments. thanks to jon (aka johnny T) for giving us a personal tour.
