It was a cold and windy weekend…..when I looked at the temperature -16, -21, -13…..blizzard warning, in town it didn’t look so bad but on the open prairie near white out conditions and we weren’t getting any new snow. It was snow relocating from the counties north and west. DD and I had tickets for the Saturday matinee the way the weather was she decided not to make to 2 1/2 hour drive, she suggested I call the box office first thing Saturday and see if I could exchange tickets for Sunday when the weather might be better. I did they were very gracious and I got tickets for the Sunday matinee two seats away from my original seats high in the center of the balcony. I called my SIL lo and behold they already had tickets to the Sunday matinee! So I rode with them and met my son there. Everything worked out, my brother drove, the interstate was clear no ice no packed snow no problems. The play was wonderful Richard Thomas played Atticus. I need to read the book again. Mrs. Dubose, the cranky old lady who Jem read to in the book was played by Mary Badam who played Scout in the movie.
Sometimes you have to get the big coat out and the thick stocking cap and brave the weather. —Ann—
I'd say that's a good reason to brave the weather! Hopefully, you are snuggled under quilts and creating something beautiful now.
