My foot is definitely improving, and putting pressure on it is no longer a trip to hell. I'm very happy about that.

Very good news, Larry!

BK, I didn't stay to the end of the day last night because I had to get up much to early (for me on a Sunday ::) ) to pick up my friend's daughter from the airport.

Her flight arrived at 9:05, and she got her luggage fairly quickly, but she's still going through customs.

Thank you MR BK.  As I wrote....it's one of the great books written from the point of view of the performer.

Perfection.

It is a choir for people afflicted with dementia and Alzheimer's and their helpers.

It sounds like it could be depressing, but it was a really inspirational afternoon.

Between the numbers, some of the family members spoke about what their participation meant to them, and it was quite moving.

And the chorus was actually pretty good, sometimes singing in 3-part harmony.

Well, the drive to and from the SeaTac airport pretty much went without a hitch...except that I ended up getting there way to early because it took her half an hour from the time the plane landed to get to baggage claim, and then about 50 minutes to get through customs and to let me know she was ready to be picked up. ::)

But all is well.
