SUNDAY WAS TOO FUN

Well, where to start.  Went to church, I felt so bad because all I got out of the sermon was the connection he was trying to make about "road construction".  I simply didn't get it but then I can be as dense as a stick.
We had wonderful birthday cake downstairs.  I wanted seconds but didn't.
We had an early lunch and it wasn't until about 2pm Jim asked me what day were our concert tickets for?  Well they were for that night.  We almost forgot to go.  We were so looking forward to it.
A LETTERMEN CHRISTMAS!
They sang a million Christmas songs, they were wonderful, what the did to make "The Twelve Days of  Christmas" so entertaining was just to funny for words.  It was a riot.
They sang a lot of their old standards,  Theme from "A Summer Place", Going Out of My Head/Can't Take My Eyes Off of You, Put Your Head On My Shoulder, Smile, Shangri-La, Traces/Memories.  Too name a few.  They have one original member.  Tony Butala.  At 75 he stills sounds pretty darn good and one of the other members Donovan Tea, has been with him since 1984.  He was with a group called "Th Young Americans".  The other member of the troupe was equally wonderful, but hearing Donovan sing "Oh Holy Night" let me tell you, he received a standing ovation for that.  It was wonderful entertainment and sure get you in the Christmas  mood.
