Howdy, Tann.

I TRIED for one and missed....got one purely by accident.

That’s the way my week has gone! LOL!

Hope you have a good weekend.

BTW....how WAS the Radio City Music Hall concert that you
went to a few weeks ago? (or did I get it wrong? That could
happen to me! LOL!)

It was lots of fun, the night before Thanksgiving. My wife wanted to take a Christmas card picture by the tree at Rockerfeller Center -- except that it wouldn't be lit up for about 3 more days and it still had the scaffolding . . .

The show was mostly similar to last year (or was it two years ago?), but they reworked a couple of the numbers and moved them around so they can add it a big 75th anniversary finale. We loved it although my son had a little bit of trouble.

The folks in front of us got there just moments before curtain and naturally the adult sat right in front of him. He insisted he could see, and didn't want to switch seats. Personally, being that I'm 6'3, I check at things like this to make sure I'm NOT sitting in front of a kid -- or a tiny woman who might tap her foot at me, but I digress -- so I was a bit annoyed. THEN, ten minutes later, after the show had started, the New York Knicks, or at least a family of four that had the same stature came in and sat down in front of THEM. So now the kids in front of me were sitting on Daddy's lap, blocking my son's view even more. And now I couldn't switch seats because mine would've been worse for him.

But he's a trooper and he deals with things like that, and he still enjoyed himself anyway. And he'll only have to put up with it (Lord help me) for another year or two or three.

The Rockettes were gorgeous and delightful, as can be expected, as are the rest of the dancers and the ice skaters (yup, ice skaters!)

We managed to avoid the $11 buckets of popcorn and the souvenirs and stuff. We've gotten plenty of those in the past.

We were lucky to get the tickets. They were probably cancellations due to the stagehand strike at the Broadway threaters cancelling people's trips to NYC.
