On the Thursday before the end of Lexi’s
summer music and performing arts camp, there was a performance in the morning
and a play in the afternoon. I was impressed with the amount the students learned
and with how well coordinated it all was. Once the concert started there was
very little down time as they shifted from one group to another. This included
a variety of ages as well as instruments along with voice and dance.
The play in the afternoon went off
without a hitch as well. I could understand the words in songs. I expect the
notes to be correct, but sometimes it is harder to hear or comprehend the
words. This came across very well.
Between the morning and afternoon
session we ate a picnic lunch in Rock Creek Park which was close. There was a
mill there that we could see from the outside.
Fortunately for us the rain did not
come until after the play was over. Sarah had parked closer to the building in
the afternoon so that was good too. She was the martyr as she raced down in the
pouring rain to get the umbrellas that we had not thought to bring up. We all
got a bit wet as puddles were everywhere. It was also a trick to get in the car
and fold the umbrellas.
In the evening Sarah, Natalie, and I
went to family movie night at their church. We saw Early Man. I found it to be
quite funny at times. I believe Leroy would have liked it as well, but he
wanted to work on those cacti.
