Sunday On The Run

Sue did the treadmill for the second time this month.  She is going slow but she does 90 minutes and the hand does not seem to hurt too bad!  We got cleaned up and headed to the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts to see the Cab Calloway Orchestra with Cab Calloway’s grandson as the leader.  We had seat in the second row and it was spectacular.  Never seen so may styles of “Zoot Suits” in one place.  The Cathey’s, Zaitz, Branders joined us along with Greg, Iris and Wil.  Great fun!

Summary: With Cab Calloway’s grandson C. Calloway Brooks at its helm, the Cab Calloway Orchestra delivers hot Jazz, Blues, Boogie, and Swing, delighting crowds all over the country. The group’s famous songs include Minnie the Moocher (Hi-De-Ho), Stormy Weather, and It Ain’t Necessarily So. Called New York’s best-kept secret, Alice Tan Ridley emerged from the Big Apple’s subway platform and rocked the nation on America’s Got Talent with a voice that the New York Post called “electrifying.”

We made the 30 minute move from CCPA to the Santa Ana Elks in about 20 minutes… No traffic at all!  We met up with the Branders, Finch’s, and the rest of the gang for the Jam Session!  We departed gor home around 9:00 and watched three episodes of “The West Wing”… We are now into the fourth season!

 

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
