Had a great trip to Boston last weekend. It was our opportunity to celebrate Lee's birthday. The main purpose of the trip was to see Annie Lennox in concert. You can see pics and read my review at my Blog. Rosie O'Donnell was at the concert, too.
On Saturday, we went to see a competent but not overwhelming production of Streamers. On Sunday, we had a great time shopping and walking around Boston. The concert was Sunday evening.
The best part was the city fix. We drove to Waltham and then took the train into Boston. Then we moved around on the Subway. It was an amazing time

Hurricane Noel
Lee and I headed to Boston yesterday to see the national tour of Sweeney Todd. Sweeney Todd is, I believe, the one musical Anna Belle and Emile have walked out of. I've seen it many times, and this production was absolutely incredible. Ten actors who play all of the parts and all of the instruments.
But that's not why I write today. Oddly, we got caught in the bands of weather emanating from Hurricane Noel. New England isn't really know for its hurricanes, and what we got here was a lot of rain and gusts up to 80 miles per hour. The odd thing was that people traveled from all over New England to be in it. The major effects were between 1 and 4, so we spent most of the time in the theater.
The newscasts were filled with stories of power (20,000 customers) down and fallen trees. Oh, and a carwash collapsed.
Now, you're probably thinking what has reduced Mel to writing about some wimpy hurricane that didn't even hit land. Exactly. I'm sure Anna Belle will write about her repositioning cruise when she gets back, but I also want to hear from everyone else.
But the storm really was amazing and most of the trees have finally lost their leaves.
