Went over to the greenhouse to get potting soil in my grow box and also filled up the tank for the opera today. Left for Sonnambula at 11:30. The theater was sold out again. I really enjoyed the performance. Natalie made the whole show. Wow, what an opera. Stopped at a very crowded Trader Joes for ribs and wine for dinner. Dinner was very nice but the ribs were St Louis, not our normal TJ's ribs. These had a fake hickory smoke flavor. It's spring - enjoyed the flowering trees on the way back from the opera. Distributed the MAAVS Memo this evening. It looks like we have a new hotel for the MAAVS convention. I finished the Richochet book tonight. This was a thriller that I enjoyed very much.
