On Wednesday, November 14th, I was at the Garden Club helping to pack boxes of goodies - everything from toothpaste to beef jerky to foot powder to candy - to be sent overseas to our heroes and heroines serving in our military. Each box had a special message tucked inside.
Last Saturday I went to the opera in my yoga clothes! Right after my 8a.m. yoga class I raced over to the Edwards Mira Mesa 18 theatres to meet a girlfriend and attend a matinee performance of the Metropolitan Opera, beamed live from New York. What a great experience! We watched The Tempest - a so-so opera. What I loved was their intermissions in New York where the cameras went back stage. We got to see how the stage was completely transformed for each act (an engineering and logistics marvel). And we also got to see live interviews of the leading performers. Those behind-the-scenes moments were the best part for me.
