Weekend plans

First, last weekend... turns out the Frank Sinatra impersonator was pretty good. The orchestra sounded awesome. They did several FS songs, as well as songs by composers he worked with such as Count Basie and Nelson Riddle.

Now, this weekend... Bob and I are driving to TN to visit his parents. His brother, sister-in-law, and nephew are coming to visit from Alabama. This will be my first opportunity to meet them. His brother just got back from Afghanistan a few weeks ago. I'm glad he's back safely. Before we go to his parents' house, we are going to have dinner with an old college roommate of mine who lives in Knoxville. We're coming back on Monday.

Weekend plans

Bob and I are going to see a Frank Sinatra impersonator tonight. He's singing with the Lexington Philharmonic Pops (http://www.lexphil.org/index.php?b=se_pops).

This is the second weekend in a row we've gone to a Lex Phil event. I just hope he's not cheesey.
