And we just got the rehearsal schedule for Moonshine and Mistletoe! I guess it's really happening.

Tell!     :)

Nothing to tell.  I'm waiting for a PM from a professional flautist for some advice.

Had fun rehearsals.  First Juliana - neither she nor our musical director had a clew as to what I've been up to with arranging the song she's doing it.  Happy to say they both absolutely loved the arrangement.  It's a corny song the way it's usually done and I took all the damn corn out of it and while it's completely true to the song, I just made it feel fresher and newer, which is what I love to do.

Then JoAnne Worley was here and she was, as always, hilarious and I just adore her.

I suspect that "My Time of Day" was orchestrated a step or so higher than ut is in the rental materials, and it takes the flute really low for four bars.  I needed to ask John Blanchard, who played flute on the incidental music for "Invitation to A March" on UNSUNG SONDHEIM, for some advice. I had two big problems with this number.

The cell waiting parking lot in Portland is in a great spot.  The plane are practically landing in front of us.

Well, I'm off to a union meetin'.  I'm an alternate on the negotiating team, so I'll just observe.  I don't know how long it'll take, though.

Be back later.

Here's the fig tart with chocolate ganache I made yesterday for Mom's birthday. It needs whipped cream, but was otherwise lovely.

They are both slowing down, but they managed to work four hours at a blood drive today. Bless them.

The trip has been nice so far. We've had some rainy weather, but that has only increased the number of lightning bugs I saw tonight. More than I've seen in years. Beautiful sight.
