Three Beautiful Things 04-27-2026: Packing, Talking, Stopping

 1.  On Tuesday, April 28th, six of us guys raised in Kellogg will get together for three nights of fun at the Wildhorse Resort and Casino and in the nearby area.  Here's who will join together: Ed Hanson, Mike Stafford, Terry Turner, Don Windisch, Jim Lewis, and I. 

It took me all day to pack because I am fastidious about not forgetting anything whether clothes, electronics, medicine, stuff for the bathroom, etc.  I'm less likely to make mistakes if I don't rush. 

2. When Debbie and I participate in cultural events, it usually takes a day before we can really talk about it. We talked some on Sunday about our experience hearing Verdi's Requiem, but we got into it in much more detail today. I learned a lot listening to Debbie and am really glad we don't push each other to comment on these things when the experience is fresh. We both need time. 

3. Michael Tilson Thomas, the recently deceased giant of classical music, especially American, said that "the most important thing about music is what happens when it stops . . ."

I''m going to leave his insight uncommented on, hoping you'll ponder it.
