Farewell To All

Farewell to our Florida friends. We leave tomorrow for our sixth annual summer retreat in Duluth, MN. We'd recommend it for anyone. Click here for information.
This afternoon we attended a performance of "I Never Sang For My Father" presented by The Village Players. We thought they did a very good job on this emotional drama.

One Book, One Community

Last night we attended the "Read Together Palm Beach County 2008 FINALE" at the Harriet Himmel Theater. Palm Beach Dramaworks performed scenes from the book, The Memory Keepers Daughter. The author, Kim Edwards, spoke and took questions. They also offered a free buffet dinner.

The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Last night, Sweeney Todd opened at "The Kravis" for a one-week run. The seats were not half sold. Many, including me, didn't care for the story but I enjoyed the unique production which had all the actors also perform as orchestra members. Although one can't come away humming the tunes, I like Stephen Sondheim's music and lyrics a lot. The lyrics were difficult to hear but very clever, I thought. I enjoyed the production but wouldn't call it a "must see."

Tropical Punch...
















...and Judy Show.



With a little polishing, a journal of our Costa Rican holiday with its six travelers of disparate personalities could make an award winning comedic screenplay. For the principals, enjoying the humor, may require the detachment of passing time.



We enjoyed the adventure of exploring in a different culture. Since we were only on the Pacfic coast, there was much of Costa Rica we didn't get to. Una semana en Costa Rica por $ 350 proved to be a fantasy.
