Harmony

My sister invited me to a concert at her church by the choral group, Measure to Measure. The group consists of 88 male singers. I invited my husband, mother and dad. My husband picked up my parents, then came to work to get me and we drove together 23 miles to my sister's church. The first half of the concert consisted of folk and patriotic songs. Nice articulation, tone and harmony. There was a brief intermission and we had refreshements in the gathering space. Wine, water, crackers and cheese, fruit, bite size muffins. The air conditioner was on and my 88 year old mother became cold and was shivering. I asked the hostess if she had a blanket and she did! Members of the parish knit blankets for the elderly and the sick. My dad believes mother got tired because she commented on the length of the ride back. It was a fun date night--if you don't mind that we were chaperoned by three family members and that I was sitting in the seat in front of my husband! I can't find my cell phone. I had it at the concert. I drove out to the church but it was not in the lost and found. It's possible it is in the office, but the office is closed until tomorrow. I returned the two blankets (mother has blankets at home, next time I will put some in the car) and wrote a check as a donation for the wonderful hospitality and harmonious music.
