Love Actually in Concert

(328/365) “Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion’s starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don’t see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it’s not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it’s always there – fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know, none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge – they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that love actually is all around.” - Love Actually

Last night we had the pleasure of watching the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra perform the award-winning score live to Love Actually while the film played in high definition on a giant screen at the Riverside Theatre.

November in My Garden

(325/365)

"We seldom think of November in terms of beauty or any other specially satisfying tribute.  November is simply that interval between colorful and dark. Then, nearly every year, come a few November days of clear, crisp weather that makes one wonder why November seldom gets its due." - Hal Borland, November
