Yesterday, we had a wonderful visit from Annie and Louie, down from Northampton for an afternoon with us and an overnight with Jan. 
We spent several hours sort of wandering through many happy activities, but mostly playing out in the yard with Louie and his soccer ball. Annie and Cia proved to be good competition for young Louie, as this brief video shows: 




Annie and I also found some time to chat, and, as always, our conversation was heartwarming. She is a queen of quiet and ever-confident love. 

Later that evening, Cia and I went to hear the Eastern CT Symphony Orchestra's first concert of the year, and it was, as always, an absorbing performance. Of course, as usual for the ECSO, several of the pieces were too wild and baffling for me to appreciate, but I think both of us loved the piano soloist's performance of Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini", one of my favorite pieces from many years ago. She played with true zest and devotion. 

Below is a magnetic message from yesterday:
