Dinner and a show

I’ve lived outside of Nevada City off and on since 2007, but tonight was the first time that I attended an event at the Center for the Performing Arts in Grass Valley.

The occasion was a show by my friend Nancy’s new voice teacher (Carrie Hennessy). What a voice and what a show — entertaining, thought-provoking, and moving.

We met early for a delicious Italian dinner before the concert and had an altogether pleasant evening.

Follow the hearts home

After dropping Ramesha at the airport for his flight to Portland, I headed to the town of Dixon to visit a friend who moved here six months ago or so.

Nancy and I have been close friends since we were fifteen — which was an amazing fifty-plus years ago. So, today was a wonderful opportunity to catch up on, well….everything!

Everything included the wonderful (but hard) work that she and her husband are putting in to create a beautiful sanctuary out of their yard.

I particularly loved this heart path leading to their front door.

Fifty years of friendship

Today I’m feeling super grateful for my friend, Nancy.

We’ve known each other since we were fifteen years old. That’s a whole lot of living and shared experiences.

This photo is from about five years ago. We enjoyed a lovely Zoom chat this afternoon, but I’m looking forward to seeing her in person soon.
