Yes, today it will be over 90 and by Saturday in the high 90's.

They’ve revised the forecast for today. It’s now projected to be 108.

Great notes and photos.  I loved the cast photo, but in the spirit of Where's Waldo, where's Brent?

I was lucky - first bit in over a week - and made all the bus connections within minutes.  It took me 45-50 minutes to make the trip.  Because of that explosion last week, 23rd Street is a mess and I had to walk extra blocks since the bus stops are screwed up along with traffic.

George, yes, the orchestra  began the show with a Sherman Brothers overture.  Two-thirds of the way through act one they did the Tom Sawyer overture.  They opened act two with a Mary Poppins medley, and they played some of Small World during the finale.

Had a fun time with Kay.  We just ran her patter, added a couple of little things, and then I fixed the one thing in the act that has bugged me from the very start - and she's now totally open to doing it and I think it will bring down the house.

Then we went to Barone's for food.  I had their tiny personal pizza (the equivalent of two slices of normal pizza, if that) and a salad.

I went for an early morning walk with my neighbor which included a stop at the coffee shop.  I had water and a carrot cake muffin with cream cheese frosting.  It was very enjoyable.
