Okay, I am trying to get caught up on my postings...but am so far behind. How does this happen?
Tonight, I took the girls to a columbarium in Oakland to celebrate Summer Solstice. New Music Bay Area and Chapel of the Chimes presented Garden of Memory 2007: a Columbarium Walk-Through Event at Chapel of the Chimes, a labyrinthine Julia Morgan-designed columbarium and mausoleum replete with gardens, fountains, and stained-glass skylights. The acoustics were incredible as were the participating musicians. Ainsley had the "creeps" at first, but Kaley enjoyed it from the get go. The little miss plopped herself right down on the remains of someone and devoured her pasta. Ainsley chose to sit on a bench, but asked if it used to "be" someone. Where did her adventurous spirit go???? After a while, she warmed up and really had fun exploring the many rooms/nooks and crannies following the music throughout. Not only was the night filled with great sounds, but it was good to see some colorful people, too. This event attracted an interesting audience, in some cases.
