Week in Review

A lovely Saturday - Cora had rehearsal and Stace took her in the MG. Later, we had lunch with Kelly and Yass. Then, a Wildwood Canyon hike with Violet, before dinner at Chick-Fil-A and a wander around the mall. Here, the girls are shopping together. 

On Sunday, Stace and I had quite a cultured day. We went to a silent film festival at the Newhall Family Theater, taking in two films by local hero William S. Hart. After a quick dinner, we went back out to his namesake Hart High, to watch a musical written and produced by two Hart graduates. It was a dystopian Disney musical, with lots of songs.

It rained a lot Sunday and Monday, and the girls were off again Monday for their four-day weekend. I had lunch with my friends at a new eatery, Mendocino Farms, and then took Cora to her singing lesson and shopping for some clothing necessities for her upcoming shows.

Cora is getting ready for the district's theater festival on Friday. She had a long rehearsal Wednesday, and after rehearsal on Thursday came home disenchanted because her sword for her Shakespeare scene broke, and the blood pills they'd bought weren't usable.

So, as is typical for Cora, she set about fixing things. We went out to buy empty gel capsules and corn syrup, so she could dye the syrup and create new blood pills.

Thankfully, they were able to find a replacement sword.

Vi and I took a walk behind Granary Square to see the Santa Clara River after all the recent rain. Wow!

Looks like an actual river. Let's get out the kayak!

Also this week, we had two different architects come out to see our room project, as we continue to collect architect quotes.
