Day 796: Bald Eagle Colony

It was a full day, even though I felt awful.  We visited the bald eagle colony at Point Gratiot first thing this morning and saw at least a dozen eagles either perched in the trees or flying overhead.  I definitely need a new camera lens so I can capture the magnificent birds in flight.

We were also happy to walk in sunshine.  It felt warm, despite being only 22. The ladies' class in Fredonia was next.  Our student leaders were outstanding, as always, as they shared their insights and anecdotes.  I hope the girls feel less fearful and anxious because of our discussions.

Then, we moved on to stage crew.  We skinned the front door unit, painted the two large panels, touched up the underside of the stairs, hung the clock and cleaned up.  Steve stayed for the sitz probe, which is when the orchestra and cast first work together.

I went to book club where we discussed The Paris Wife about Ernest Hemingway and his first wife, Hadley Richardson.  The book was fascinating and I loved it.  Now I must read a biography of Hemingway and more of his work.
