Last Sunday night, I scored free tickets to the Oregon Symphony. My manager at PCS was handing out coupons, and boy am I glad I got one! The music was really beautiful, and Dan and I had a fun time exploring the Arlene Schnitzer Concert hall too--it is a beautiful old building, and we walked alllllll the way up to the top of the balcony to try out all the views. We were seated on the main floor right in the center, but next time we hope to sit in the first few rows of the balcony..I like being able to see all the instruments.
here are some goofy pictures of us...Dan even wore a tie!!!! (those who know him will be impressed by this). Note my brand new pillow chair, purchased care of birthday money and Dan!
Speaking of goofy pictures, we went grocery shopping at the cheaper "Shoppers food warehouse-like" store tonight, it is called Winco. But we forgot our handy grocery cart, so we were struggling to lug our groceries through the parking garage and safely up the 9 floors to our apartment. Let's just say I sent a melon and a can of mandarin oranges flying. All of a sudden, fortune smiled upon us in the form of an abandoned stolen Safeway shopping cart!! It was right at the bottom of the stairs in the parking garage and we loaded it up and made our way quickly up the 2 elevators and through the parking lot to our place. On the way back down, Dan says he was warned to "be careful" because we could get in "big trouble" if we were caught with the illicit cart. CRIMINALS!!
