Ballet CONCERT

BYU Ballet Theatre on tour visited our town recently
Their program featured excerpts from several popular ballets
Children-boys and girls were invited early to meet the dancers
At intermission time, children were invited to dance on stage with the performers
What fun for the kids who came in princess and prince's costumes
No set steps just dancing spontaneously with the ballet dancers
Makes you want to be young again but it was fun watching the kids joy
There were many participants who came with their parents to this cultural evening
Time for the college dancers to exit for the rest of the program
Proud moms and wantabe ballerinas posed for the cameras
A lovely experience reminded me of my dancing days years ago

Shopping Again

New store in town ROCKET FIZZ-candy and soda pop...
Time to explore a new shop in town, where candy bars are only $5 each!
Any kind of pop you can imagine, only $10 for 6 bottles!
Don't ever bring your kids or grand kids here...
Ah memories from the past, it was a different time then...
Lots of cute signs and posters from the past
Any flavor you're interested in, they have for a PRICE!
Penny candy like this costs $6 for a small bag full
Stonecutters Ice Cream next door has this fun handle...

Life MARCHES Along..


Time MARCHES faster the older you get.
It takes all my energy just to keep up.
No time for stumbling or hesitating.
Keep up the pace or be LEFT BEHIND.



So as I'm hurrying to catch up,
it's important to be sure I'm FOLLOWING
the right leader who's going where
I want to go in a POSITIVE way.

In today's world, it's too easy
to get caught up in PESSIMISM
or CRITICISM and stop growing.
Change is the name of the game.

Lead or be led, but always
be aware of where the PATH
is taking you, IF its destination
fits your values and views.
