The weather was so warm here today. I love it when I can wear a t-shirt outside in mid-October.

I took my niece to bike at the lake today. The Fall colors are so magnificent there.  She was a bit nervous about biking around the actual lake (because she fell and hurt herself the first time we tried doing it). It is gravel and not really ideal for inexperienced riders.

Anyway I have taken her by bike to the park at the lake quite a few times. There is an entry where it is very wide and not near the lake. So she is comfortable doing that.  But she wasn't sure if she would be able to ride around where the actual lake's bike path is.

First we stopped to admire the ducks and i took some nice pictures. Then we stopped at the park. Then we ran into her homeroom teacher/English at school who seemed very nice.  Then we biked around the lake. We only went half way and then turned around (there are two paths at the section). So we looped around so we could go home by the bigger path. IT took 1 1/2 hours to do just this as she kept wanting to stop and look and collect leaves.

Thankfully she didn't fall this time. Although she did remember falling. But I told her i thought that she could do it.


Sounds like fun. Can you post any of the pictures?

Ginny, have you ever considered that Michigan football may be responsible for your heart problems?

LOL.

Ditto.  I also knew you were going to make it around the park.

Totally agree about three-act plays.


The lesson I have learned about three-act plays; it is never take a role that only appears in the third act.  Half of your audience goes home after act two.

Good morning, all! A drug-free night and I slept rather well.  In my last dream I was working on a play/film/je ne sais quoi about Giuseppe Verdi to star my good friend Stephen Rea. All i remember now is lots of stone staircases and a discussion of thevopera FALSTAFF.

This afternoon I am expecting a visit from our DR Anthony and Ben. I look forward to that.

DR vixmom, I'm so sorry about the DEAREST ENEMY mess! New World Records was slow this year in getting the copies to cast, crew and others on the comp list. I think part of the problems was the hold up on the booklet insert. There's a sad typo in the Criswell biography. She appeared in the Broadway production of THREEPENNY OPERA starring Sting. When I proofed the booklet, I asked them to add that info. I never saw the booklet for a second proof, and the designer made the name STRING. Oy!

Too many plays!  I'd include:
The Skin of Our Teeth
Mother Courage
Marat/Sade
A Streetcar Named Desire
No Exit
The Birthday Party

I ended up with a loose page in my booklet.  It is no big deal, in fact I can't see that it serves any purpose.  I may send the loose page to elmore so he can sign it for me.

I LOVE LUCY ON STAGE WAS FABULOUS!!!


My brothers Kevin, Rick and hubby Jerry really enjoyed the show.


The  actors were very talented.  I was really impressed with their singing.  They sounded and looked like the originals.

The actor who played "Ricky" was the best I thought.  I also began to have a crush on him because he is so cute.

Afterwards we went to Applebees, and then off to shopping for our great niece's birthday.

Yes, we will be seeing Larry this afternoon. I'll be his produce man.

Meanwhile, here's a picture of him and Kevin (who is on his way to Buffalo, I believe, to see sister Kate and the Lucy Show)



Couldn't someone have warned me to put on sunglasses before looking at that photo?
