Our employee party for the summer was at a Utah Symphony concert up at the Deer Valley Resort in Park City. Now, I have to admit, Park City is probably my favorite place in the whole state. Yes, Utah has some amazing natural beauty in its national parks, but nothing quite compares to the serene, wooded landscapes of Park City and the amazingly fresh mountain air.
The guest artist of the evening was some crazy carnie with an electric harp. I won’t go into details because a) I don’t want to relive that experience again and b) I don’t want to spread the tortute via my blog. Needless to say, everything leading up to the final performance was a disgrace to the institute of music. The finale was sans harp, thank goodness. To end the evening, the Utah Symphone performed Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture with real antique cannons. I think more songs should be performed with artillery — it definitely adds to the ambiance.
So, Devon, I know we haven’t talked in months, but I saw that you’ve read “My Sister’s Keeper” . . . have you seen the movie? If so how did you feel about the movie’s ending?
So, was this Kate girl your date for the evening?
Heh, nope, I went with one of Dan and Amy’s friends whom they’d met in NYC when she was serving as a missionary in their ward.
hahhaah i couldn’t have said it better myself! it was, in the best terms, interesting.
