We're coming to Connecticut


This Sunday, Oct. 26, my friend Mary and I are planning to drive up to CT for a concert in Litchfield. It's at 4:00 at St. Michael's Church (25 South St.)

Since we'll be in your neck of the woods, Cheryl/Kristen/Maureen, I would love it if we could get together before the concert for coffee or something? Depending on traffic we hope to arrive in Litchfield between 3:00 and 3:30. Maybe you'd even like to attend the concert with us....

(P.S. The creature above is a Gorgon.)

Here's some info on the piece they're doing.

I'd love to meet you! I'll talk to Kris & Maureen, if they can go that would be a fun excursion.

Litchfield isn't that far from me at all, maybe next spring if you venture back over here we could plan a trip to Whiteflower Farm?

Good! If you send me your cell number in an email I will send you mine and we can be in closer touch.

I have to call this number 860-567-9465 and see how much the ticket costs.

Priscilla said...

Okay! I just called that number. That's St. Michael's Church. Admission is free. There is only a donation, proceeds to go to the Torrington Soup Kitchen. Between 3 and 4 they are offering tours of the church. There is plenty of parking on church grounds.

Yippe a road trip!!! Are we going? I can probably swing it, I have nothing else going on I don't think, I have to find out what Corey is doing but he is usually busy with 13 year old stuff any how!

Cheryl said...

Kris & I are on board, I haven't been able to reach Maureen yet today but hopefully she'll be able to come as well.

Unfortunately Dave set up a follow up appointment with the fellow that's straightening out our prior accountant's fiasco for Sunday afternoon, so I won't be able to stay for the concert. But I definitely want to come & say howdy.

Thanks for thinking of us :)

.... little puffs of green envy smoke drifting from my ears .....

Kristen said...

Sorry Biddie, we can take lots of pictures and send down to ya OR you could hop on a plane and get here this evening!!

Priscilla said...

You are invited, too, Biddie! Send me your cell number in an email. We'll try to call you.

Kristen - please take a couple of pictures - a quick trip up there isn't in the budget ....

Priscilla - using your links, I found a website that has some recordings of the music that will be in the concert - I'll listen to them and so will be at the concert in absentia ....in all fairness, the weekly NASCAR race is also on, so I'll just turn the sound down on the TV so I can hear the music !!!! Some juxtapostion, eh what???
