What to Do When You Cannot Attend NQC

While some of you are out meetin’ and greetin’ at the National Quartet Convention, some of us are hanging around home, trying to “occupy” our time.  Here are a few things we found to do this week…

  1. Wondering if the people attending the NQC have found their parking space for Saturday events.
    Louisville is hosting North Carolina across the parking lot at 3:30 PM ET on EPSN2 in some parts of the country.

    • NQC fans were told to arrive by noon if they wanted to have a chance at a parking spot!

  2. Haha love it! See, what Caleb should have done is use the money Scott gave him by paying off for y’all’s way to NQC…well I, guess it depends how much he gave him. ;) Lol just kidding. Thanks for the video, Garms Family! :)

    • Well, maybe that wouldn’t have been quite right, but it sounds like the hypothetical agreement didn’t say anything about putting it toward next year! :)

      • Haha true!

    • Too funny, Rebecca – that made us laugh! :lol: We’re so glad you enjoyed the video!

  3. That is really funny! Great job on the video!

    • Thanks, y’all! The video was fun to put together, and we had a blast coming up with “boring” things to do. :)

  4. That was great, loved it! thanks guy s you made me laugh.

    • Thank you, David! We hoped the video would brighten someone’s day, so we were happy to hear this made you laugh! :)

  5. What a great video! I laughed so hard! Well done, guys!

    Oh, and there’s always next year ;)

    • :lol: It was our pleasure to create the video! And, as to next year, we’ll see what the Lord has in store! We know that when the Lord wants us to go to NQC, we will be there! As long as Scott Fowler doesn’t keep paying Caleb to stay home… (We’re just kidding!) :)

  6. Great video! Especially the part where you are eating popcorn & watching the cows graze. THAT’S BORED!!!

    • :-D We think it was Mom’s idea to watch the cows. Jayme’s opinion, though, was that it was actually fun to watch the cows – for whatever reason! Caleb also enjoyed eating all the popcorn he had during that video shoot. :)

  7. You could always go to the beach. That’d get me over it pretty quick.

    • There are no beaches in Minnesota. (slight exaggeration)

      • Wait a minute… I thought MN had more beaches than any other state in the US. Y’all are the land of 10,000 lakes, correct? (Well, to be precise, 11,842 lakes over 10 acres in size!)

      • More lakes, yes. More beaches, probably not. (At least not the kind of beaches many of you are used to.)

      • The only kind of beach I’ve ever seen is a lake beach!

    • The only problem is, If we went to a beach (ah em, lake shore), we would have no intention of swimming because first, we’d all (most of us, anyway) probably drown, and second, we all (well, most of us again!) would be searching for agates – Minnesota’s state rock. :) But that certainly would have helped passed the time! :)
