Comments on: A Night Out with the KSO http://www.nothinggold.net/blog/archives/433 In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

I hope you all get a chance to go soon. Heather, I would love to read The Memory Keeper's Daughter, but I don't know how quick I could read it and send it back to you. If you want, I have a couple of books I've read recently that I bet you would like, too. Want me to send them? Joy, I do remember going, but I didn't remember the details like you did. I remember riding back to school in the van trying to get all of the truckers to honk at us. :) Cassandra, we got tickets for twenty bucks a piece. They weren't the best seats (we couldn't see the whole stage) but the music sounded just the same. :) Our dinner, while slightly fancier a place than usual and somewhere we had never been, was not any more expensive than your average sit down restaurant. Our night cost less than a hundred dollars. Maybe, if you looked into it, you might find that it could be less expensive than you think. I know how lucky I am, guys.

I want to get all dressed up, have him get all dressed up, go out to eat at a nice restaurant, and then have him take me to the Orchestra. Alas, funds have prevented my dream from happening. Orchestra tickets are pretty pricey. It'd be almost $150-200 alone for that. I only live about an hour and a half away.....(so close, so close!) so maybe one day my dream will come true! (both my husband and I are classical music lovers, also.....) I have always wanted to do that with my hubby- except go to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

I'm dying to go to a symphony. I remember Fellowship going years and years ago. It was for kids - I remember the conductor was dressed like a train conductor and there was music that sounded like a train. Do you remember it? I'm glad you had fun. I almost felt like I was there with you, you describe everything so vividly!! Joy Rachel,
