Three beautiful things from my past week:<\/p>\n
1. I won tickets to see Andrew Bird at Wolf Trap, an amphitheater on National Park land not far outside D.C. My friends Chris and Julie were able to join Rudi and me, and we met up with Michael, Julia, and Sarah to picnic before the show. It was cool, clear weather, and the show was a solid one — a really lovely night.<\/p>\n
2. Tonight, the local “Friends of” group showed The Princess Bride<\/em> in the local park. It was as crowded as I’ve ever seen it for a film, and I find that I love the movie as much as I did 30 years ago when I first saw it (even if I can recognize its faults). Inconceivable?! I think not!<\/p>\n 3. Rebecca, who’s the lead coach for our volleyball volunteer group, joined Saturday volleyball because Aroush and I raved about it so. She’d been away for much of the summer session, but was finally able to make it last weekend — and she had a good time!<\/p>\n How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world lately?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Three beautiful things from my past week: 1.
