Eleven Eleven Eleven

Family

Such a fun date! Such a beautiful day! It dawned cool and crisp with the moon setting in the west just as light was appearing in the east. Cool enough that even by late morning we had ice on the deck. We spent a good amount of time today working on organizing genealogy files and transferring information from the old blog to the new one. These have been our major activities since we got home from Ohio Monday night. But we also took time out to move our furniture back onto the newly stained deck. Rather than stain it ourselves this time we decided to bolster the local economy and found a great couple of painters willing to do it for us. It looks so nice and finished now.

Also made ourselves a yummy midday meal of vegetables and sausage on top of spaghetti squash. The squash, tomatoes, peppers, oregano, and sausage were all local or home grown foods. Only the olive oil, the onions, and maybe the garlic were bought in the supermarket. We are so enjoying the availability of quality local foods!

We finished off the day with dinner with friends at St John’s in Waynesville.

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week.

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
