Art and Dinner.....

Last evening we had a dinner party with the Brunch Bunch from Halifax. See pictures! We have one indoor table which seats four and one outside table that seats four. So we split up and a good time was had by all....we hope. Note the last picture of Shirley....poor baby had a fall last week and she has a real shinier. (You should see the other guy!)

Jack has started art lessons again. Here is a picture of him doing his "home work". He is out on the second floor terrace enjoying the sunshine as he creates. He is really quite good.....his teacher is full of praise.

We have bought tickets for a series of concerts this winter. The Music Appreciation Society brings top notch performances into our local auditorium which is a five minute walk for us to attend. Last week we were treated to the symphony of San Luis Potosi from Mexico City. They performed "The Four Seasons" by Vivaldi. Hard to believe that music was written in 1725 and is still appreciated today. On the corner of Spring garden Road and Dresden Row there is a violinist who plays Vivaldi's work all through the summer and fall. It made me a little homesick....
The next concert is on Tuesday and it will be three tenors and a soprano doing popular opera standards from Carmen, La Boheme, Tosca and Turandot. Our friends Marilyn and Del will be with us next week and we hope to get tickets for them too. These are our dear friends from Ontario, who winter in Florida. We miss them so much they decided they needed to see where are wintering this year. Am really looking forward to their visit. The Brunch Bunch from Halifax leave on Sunday and we will truly miss them It's been such fun to see their (positive) reaction to this very special place.

Well gentle readers, I shall not bore you silly any longer. We are being driven crazy with the noise of the festival. Fire works explode every morning, afternoon and night and we will be glad when it all ends on Sunday. Enough already!! Let's hear how life is in the far north. Warm wishes to ya'll.
