The latest ticket stub was from yesterday, when I went with Jan to see "The Dark Knight Rises," the last installment in Christopher Nolan's masterful Batman trilogy. I admire art skillfully conceived and executed, and Nolan did it in that movie. Clearly one of my top ten all-time favorite movies. Top on the list? Probably "The French Connection." Loved the look and feel of that movie, the NYC streets, the car chase, Gene Hackman.
The next ticket was one I didn't use, something I'd wanted to do for years - see the DSO in a summer outdoors concert. Our Kelly got us the tickets, but we were unable to go. Aaaaaargh. Next year.
Ah, a ticket from this year's boat show, a longstanding tradition among my friends - sort of a guys' night out. The boat show is the pretext; we're all looking forward to dinner. My son Matthew has joined us for years, but he was unable to make it this year. But Kel's beau Chris did, and it great to have him with us. And he said he enjoyed himself!
