Dress rehearsal with snow

[fbhjr]

After many days of anticipation, we did get snow today, but not enough to stop us from going to practice.


Not, mind you, that driving was great.


But, once we got south of the Mass Pike (Interstate 90) things got much better.


By the time we got to where the practice space is in Connecticut, it was basically just wet pavement.


But, that did make for a sloppy parking area with the mud.


It was dress rehearsal, so everyone brought costumes.



This is me in the fez I bought yesterday.

It is not part of the costume, the colors just happen to match.

I did discover that one you put on a fez, which is cool, everyone wants to join in.


Some people, like blue_micha, just want to look like pirates.


And there are some people where I have no idea of what look they’re trying to achieve.


But, we ran through our fights.





perrin_o_ravnos came by to watch and give feedback. He hardly booed at all.


Then, it was fold the tent time. I’m not saying some folks turn their back on this sort of work. But, pictures don’t lie.


Between the new bag bought yesterday and the others blue_micha bought we did a good job of packing it up.


Then it was load it on the car time. The good news is that blue_micha’s father let us bring the car into the garage for loading.

It is not clear if he realized it would be his daughter up on time tying it down.

She seems to really enjoy it.


And, she does a great job!


After practice we went to the local pizza place and then headed back in the “storm”.

By then it was just drizzle.
I am still glad to be off the roads before it freezes tonight.

You all look so fabulous in full costume and I'm loving your Fez.

As always - the snow looks so pretty. You must be about ready for spring though?

I do like the snow. But, not when it gets in the way of getting things done.

FEZ!! :D

Glad the road conditions weren't as bad as it seemed when it was really coming down.

Blue is indeed impressive with her tying-things-up skillz. ;D
