What a weekend!


What a weekend! Feeling crappy on Friday night, I convinced John to take me to the ER where they did x-rays to look for "free air" ( a sign of perforation) and blood tests. Apparently I was fine, so, we went home with tylenol 3's.

The next afternoon was a meeting of our Womens' Discussion Group that I did not want to miss. We spent part of the afternoon at Harald Park competing in a creative game of bocce.


After much laughter, and before the skies opened, we headed to Diana's to share a potpourri of delicious edibles. Good timing because it poured for the next few hours.


Thunder cracked overhead as we snuggled into her living room for our discussion topic. This required serious thought, writing and sharing. It is wonderful to be part of such a diverse group of women who never hesitate to bare their souls to each other.

On Sunday we were invited to the fourth annual showcase performance of Asha Pratt-Johnson. The daughter of our friends, she is a classically trained soprano. This year she was joined by Christine Robinson, a fellow soprano. They sang pieces from Strauss, Puccini, Schumann, Bellini and more. It was pure magic to sit in the audience.


In this photo they are singing their only duet, 
The Flower Duet from the opera Lakme by Leo Delibes.
