What? "Music Under the Stars" by Helena Symphony
Admission: Free
Where? On spacious grounds of Carroll College
Spanish Theme: Selections from Carmen, Bolero, Espana
Thousands of people flock here with chairs, blankets,and snacks once a year to socialize and listen to Helena's summer concert. There's no way to get an exact head count because it's free & people wander in from all directions. My daughter lives a few houses from the College and with such a great number of people milling around, it feels as if it's in her yard.
She & I weed-whacked all day to help add beauty to the landscape, as people walked past her house. Geno, a friend & artist is painting the old house she's restoring, a little at a time. Geno is having an art showing this fall, but for now he's adding a little fresh color to her house.
Holy Moly, were we tired. But..... after an epsom soak in the tub and a wonderful organic dinner, we took the dogs for a walk. We hadn't intended to attend the concert. Big signs said, "No dogs."
But we went up on a hill and listened from there. I made a very short video of the whole day but at the end of the video I got distracted with 2 little girls who were dancing to their own drummer. Kids are so uninhibited and natural at anything they do.
