Mermaid Song

Mermaid

    The rehearsals are over.  The final curtain has closed, and we are in the “recovery” stages of this year’s dance performance. Sophie was a mermaid and a small crocodile in the York County Ballet’s spring production of Peter Pan.  I do not have the photos of the crocodile costume.  Sam, my budding Jr. photographer,  took those and we’ll get them later.  So, for now we will have to make do with a selection of photos of the mermaid.  None of the photos are from the actual performance.  Apparently the “flying system” they employed for Peter was hush-hush.  Sophie did a splendid job, though she was constantly peering into the audience for a familiar face.  I’m sure that will wear off by next year.  🙂Mermaid IIThe Gowndsc_0073.JPGWils and FlowersSophie and Peter 

    Can You Hear Me Now?

    I doubt it.  Although I have DSL internet connection at this cabin, email only comes in …. it doesn’t go out.  Phone service is apparently better with Verizon than Cingular.  Mark doesn’t have phone service until he’s 40 minutes closer to civilization.  Which, oddly enough, would make this a perfect vacation destination for Mark.  The only problem?  Mark’s working during the days, and we’re on our own. So far we’ve done okay.  Here are some pictures to prove we have indoor plumbing, food preparation facilities and a sense of adventure.
