My weekend viewing was that the Grand Kyiv Ballet swung through the Treasure Valley. On Friday, I saw Swan Lake. On Sunday, I saw Don Quixote. -- (edited)

I don't pretend to know much about ballet but I am so appreciative of the beauty, grace, and athleticism displayed to beautiful music.

I have bought a season ticket to Ballet Idaho. With two other performances, this year they will perform the Nutcracker (a Christmas staple) and at the end of the year Sleeping Beauty.

So I will do the Tchaikovsky trifecta.

I was amazed in one particular place last night. Usually the music covers up everything on the stage, but in one section there was only a harp playing. I heard how often the lead ballerina's feet were hitting the stage. Phenomenal athlete in a little petite package.

my weekemd viewing was my first college football game. I'm glad I went but I will not be going again. - Pippy aka Desparada Oct 21, 10:54 2
- I would argue that live football is really more about the atmosphere than watching the game. IMO, it's much better watched on tv. - pmb Oct 21, 11:12 1
  - I agree with this -- nm - Pippy aka Desparada Oct 21, 11:27
I also saw a Kraken OT victory over the Flames and the first half of the new Lincoln Lawyer season. And I finished the new Bosch/Ballard book. All good stuff. -- nm* - crash davis 😺 Oct 21, 10:25
