Family's Fall Visit to Ashland

It was great to have the parents and the Bridge's come visit us again! It was a short trip and unfortunately Regan did not get much time with MOJO. Sniff. But it was nice to have the whole gang for the weekend. As always we had a great time.
We saw at the Angus Bowman theater, Paradise Lost. The play was set around the depression and told the overlapping dramatic stories of five characters. It seemed to be a fast moving play with all the stories intertwined together. It was very interesting to see the similarities of economic downturn and the rippling effects of it, mirror so much of our current societal situation today. I think this was overall everyone's favorite play!


Of course the ladies all had a great time shopping on Main St., especially at Paddington Station.


We had very nice seats at the Elizabethan Theater for Don Quiote. This theater is great because the multilevel historic stage is set outside creating a great ambiance. Although the local fires cast a haze of smoke in the sky and we could barely make out the stars, it was still nice. I can't speak for everyone, but I really enjoyed this play. It was a comedy play about a crazy old man trying to live out his truly rediculous fantasy's of heroism and adventure.


We saw an interesting Deaf dance group perform at the Green show. They really weren't that great of dancers, but the idea and meaning behind the show was sweet. We all sat on this brick wall for at least an hour. By the end of the show I think all of us were hurting a little form the uncomfortable seat!
