Finally I don't have to put the heat on in the morning to get the chill out! The temperature has been flirting with 80 degrees, hasn't made it yet but it looks like we might make it this week-end.
THE POOL
Pool days are few and far between. One day the sun was shinning, there were a few dark clouds hanging low but I really wanted to take a dip in the pool, so optimist that I am, decided to put my suit on and take my chances.
Well, once I got into the water, it started to pour. I quickly got out of the pool and found shelter. Eventually it stopped raining but it still looked threatening. I decided to make a quick get-away - well, the sky opened up and Millie got soaked! All things considered, better than getting stuck in a snow storm!!
THE ORIGINAL FLORIDA FOLLIES
I had the pleasure of attending an Original Florida Follies show, "Another Op'nin" Another Show" conceived, produced and directed by Cathy Dooley. The cast members are very talented with "show girls" between the ages of 60 to 94!!
The costumes were like what you would have seen in a production of the Ziegfeld Follies.
One of the outstanding numbers was when the cast presented a tribute to Abba in a medley from "Mamma Mia."
Another outstanding number was when they did "A tribute to Michael Jackson - "Beat It"
You had to see it, to believe what these ladies did!!!
MOVIES
The new community center in Delray offers many great programs. The one that I am hooked on is "Movies With Roger." This gentleman is a volunteer and shows his personal collection. After the movie is shown he conducts a discussion on the film that was shown.
All the films that I have seen so far, I have never heard of. Each one was a special experience:
East/West
Noodle
American Violet
Nowhere In Africa
One movie I missed was "Two Family House" I did see that movie in 1999 and wanted to see it again but the capacity of the room is 37 people and it was filled to capacity!
Have you heard of, or seen, any of these movies?
And February isn't over yet! ;-)
