Our first day of our trip took us to the Minneapolis area. In the north suburbs we found these fall colors.
Some wag said that this is one tourist destination that moves. Wait in one area in Minnesota and the color will come to you.
Our first stop was to see Joan and Ralph whom we have known for some 22 years. They have moved to an independent living facility after most of their lives living in a home where their family was raised. In two weeks they will be heading to Arizona where they have wintered for many years.
We will be attending the Chanhassen Dinner Theater tonight where Fiddler on the Roof is featured. We have attended this theater for 30 years or more when Broadway plays are given. This church was once the landmark in an unpopulated area where the theater is located. Now the area is extremely built up. So a little nostalgia here.
There were matinee performances at the main and smaller theaters in the afternoon. We attended the evening performance.
The interior of the theater and Sue is purchasing tickets.
Members of the cast giving an after-performance seminar with some students from Hastings, MN.
A collage of past performances.
We walked out of the theater and here was Russ, a fellow employee of 3M for almost the same dates that Al worked there. He was driving bus at that time and now has 56 years of experience with the bus company. Think of the coincidence of seeing him. Just a few minutes more or less and we would have missed him. Russ was driving the bus taking the students back to Hastings.
