5.337 docent, show

Saturday 11/02/2024

Reading my email at 6am I saw one from the Pear theater, they had one of their informal “Pear Slices” shows tonight with people performing music of the 1950s. On impulse I emailed Joanne to see if she wanted to go, and soon it turned out she did.

At ten I left for the museum, with a stop at the Congregational Church nearby, where they were having a craft fair, which one of my neighbors recommended. It was pretty good, stuff I had not seen at the usual street fairs around here.

Then on the museum to lead the noon tour, about 15 people. I had to rush because there was a live 1401 demo at 1pm. I left out several things I usually talk about, and managed to wrap up at 12:50, so yay, I guess?

Practiced some guitar, had early supper, met up with Joanne at 6:30 and off to the Pear, which is only blocks from the museum, so two identical runs down 101 in the same day. The show wasn’t that great, enthusiastic amateurs in what was basically an organized karaoke session, but you can’t spoil that music.
