blissful summer nights

It's been so long since I've written. And not because I haven't wanted to, but because I've been exhausted. The month of July for me is a crazy one, between house-sitting and working at a day camp that lasts ALL day, and baby-sitting the only thing I want to do at the end of the day is fall into bed.

July is coming to an end and I have only one more week of camp. Sad but nice all at the same time. I've finally gotten into the groove enough so that I can go do things on the weekend and yesterday night was a beautiful night.


My sweet boyfriend, good friend, and I went to a local out door concert. It's held at our local arboretum (that I am in love with) and is a full orchestra. Being the frugal tightwad that I am we bought the cheapest tickets available which means "bring your own blanket and fight the hoards of other tight wads who are coming". So we did. :) And it was FANTASTIC.

This may sound funny, but my favorite part is the fact that we were on the ground and could lay down. There is nothing so lovely as laying next to the one you love under a canopy of trees and stars and listening and FEELING music from an orchestra. I do believe that angels will play cellos in heaven. I love the relaxed atmosphere and the ability to soak up the music without having to wear uncomfortable clothes or sittting rim-rod straight in an uncomfortable chair for two and a half hours.

And, as for the cello...don't you think angels will play them in heaven!?
