Alex updated his blog with photos from Japan.
He'd been to Shimoda last week. He pointed out there are some pix on the official Seventh Fleet Band website so off I went to take a gander, hoping - as a fond mother is wont to do - to see her son get some appropriate recognition.
Hmmmm. As is so truly said, be careful what you wish for....you just might get it. Oh, look. I found him! Here he is on the stop in Hong Kong when he was on the Blue Ridge earlier this year:
As the caption on the website explains: "Musician 3rd Class Matthew Anderson plays the trombone
and Musician 3rd Class Alex Ivy rides the tuba pretending it’s a motorcycle to introduce the different
instruments they play during a performance at Yew Chung International School in Hong Kong."Yup. That's my boy. The one riding the tuba.
This is a much nicer picture:

I myself often confuse a motorcycle with a tuba. I try not to sit in front of a tuba at a band concert just in case I've read the situation wrong.
Great pics of Alex!
Love 'em! You can tell that Alex really enjoys his job. Too cool!
Those are great pictures. Alex is wonderful with kids isn't he?
That's a fact! You should hear the shrieks of excitement from the grandkids and nieces when they hear "Uncle Alex is coming!"
Absolute pandemonium. =8^o
