A
wonderful lady friend of mine, Harriett, invited a bunch of our friends to a
play called Leading Ladies with The Masquers! This
event was held at the Capital Civic Center on 8th Street in
Manitowoc, Wisconsin on Wednesday, November 13. What a chilly night it was and so like any
other fall evening until it turned magical by the warm humor and companionship
of friends.
Harriett
had made reservations for us at the Courthouse Pub. This restaurant has a great
reputation for providing terrific meals and a wonderful atmosphere! We gathered around a huge table and chatted
and enjoyed our dinners until it was time to walk over to the Civic Center.
Crowds
gathered at the entrance and moved inside slowly. This place is so…old and classy
and historic looking that it takes my breath away each time I come to an event
here.
After
we entered the auditorium we fussed over who was going to sit where and – where
were those seats anyway! LOL! Once the lights dimmed and the play began we found it was loaded with humor and the actors and
actresses gave it their all.
At the
close of the evening we all shared smiles and the “I’m so glad we got together –
we need to do it again sometime!” comments. It's great to feel genuinely comfortable and safe with those you hang out with. Are you taking time with your
friends? And are you sharing a moment to be entertained by an event together or sipping
coffee at a coffee shop or sitting across from someone’s kitchen table?
We all
need interaction, conversation, and hugs don't we? I hope you will meet with your cherished friends soon! Don't let too much time slip by! Have any ideas?
