Yay!
Fun time was had. It was cool meeting Jeff, meeting the cool neighbors (totally jealous on that front) and getting to see the chihuahua gang, however barky and nippy.
I'm going to miss that house when you guys find a place to purchase.
1776 was awesomeness.
I fell in love with Jefferson in high school and his portrayal as tall, quiet loverboy was really fun. Also loved all the other characterizations, some amazing talent there on all fronts. Hey, did Ed Wynn ever play Ben Franklin? That guy was totally channeling Wynn.
Yankee Doodle Dandy continues to be a window onto a culture completely foreign to me. All those odd vaudevillian shows with woman in shiny matching dresses and gentlemen in top hats and tailcoats smiling and linking arms as they sing generic songs about pleasant afternoons....such a weird form of entertainment. The fact that the title song is from a play about horseracing is so beyond bizarre.
Plenty of explody goodness on the drive home. Looks like the law is getting more lax on fireworks all the time - hooray for freedom.
Bummed we missed Spirit of '76, but it's bedtime for me now, as I have to work tomorrow.
