For the first time ever, I may consider drinking Pepsi instead of Coke. The first carillon in the state of Arizona has been dedicated at Saint Barnabas on the Desert. It is the "gift of [congregation] member Connie Weatherup and her husband, Craig, one-time president and CEO of Pepsi-Cola Co." I just hope someone steps up to play it regularly besides the computer. This is why we need to start a summer carillon boot camp. Not like that worked out at the last GCNA Congress, but maybe we just needed a better outreach strategy.

In other news, at least one student at Stanford has high ambitions for the expansion of the carillon at HooTow... and in fact, the extension of HooTow itself. Ahem.
