Heritage Farm renovation: our neighbor is asking for help.  We plan to scrape & paint, replace rotten boards, and fix odd problems.  Tentative schedule: Sunday after Mass, Oct. 18 and Saturday, Oct. 24.  Welcome!  Let me know. 

One more week to ticket time for Christmas:   Two performances at two different venues, one at the Meyerson as usual, the other at the brand new Winspear Opera House.  The plans:

1.  December 10, Thursday, 7:30: The Meyerson.  Christmas Special, $55 (New Director this Christmas.  David Davidson died of cancer Saturday.)

2.  December 15, Tuesday, 8:00:   The Winspear, South Pacific, $50 (cheapest in the house; with 15 or more we get better seats at $55)  Our man at the Dallas Morning News, Roger Jones, tells me the Winspear's beauty will take my breath away.  See his op ed in last Sunday's paper. 

An extra: pre-performance wine & cheese at the Tulip Lane parsonage with a tour through the best Christmas decorations in Dallas, i.e., Highland Park.

Let Rosemary or me know if you would like one or both performances.

It takes a certain maturity of mind to accept that nature works as steadily in rust as in roses.
