Fall's Arrival

The long-overdue end to the oppressive summer miseries has finally come and we all welcome that. We've pretty well recovered from our summer adventures. Now we need to get some things accomplished. (We say that but we seem to always put fun ahead of accomplishment.) Getting caught up on medical matters takes more time every year. Tomorrow's colonoscopy (speaking of fun) is an event to put behind me.
Jane's Ladies Tea was yesterday hosted by Kathy Dull. See Album.

Two Good Movies

Last night at Muvico we viewed "The Informant" starring Matt Damon. It is the story about a whistle-blowing executive in ADM and its price-fixing. The reviews are mixed but I recommend it based on the casting and direction. It was nearly flawless.

Also last night we saw Michael Moore's new movie, "Capitalism: A Love Story."
I strongly recommend it. It contained a lot of both vintage and recent video. I always enjoy that. It was long but I stayed fully engaged and emotionally involved. I was surprised at how current it was -- just like the news of the day. Micheal Moore can really get across his message -- celebrating democracy and bemoaning the control by moneyed interests.

Monday night we attended an excellent lecture by Deborah Pollack, author of Laura Woodward: The Artist Behind the Innovator Who Developed Palm Beach. It was the first in this season's Historical Society of Palm Beach lecture series.

Sunday in Hartford, Connecticut

Tonight we're visiting my friend, Caroline White in Hartford, Connecticut. We had a really good time on our cruise. The weather could have been better for our visits to Boston and Saint John but everything else was great. We've had a good cruise so far. The nightly stage shows were fabulous.
