Guest guest Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Hi Kathy, Wow, you really are rubbing elbows with the stars!! It has been so long since I've been to any kind of concert, Ron just gets too tired and hates the crowds. But we are hoping to go to a place in Fishers Indiana, Conner Prairie, on Friday for their July 4 concert and fireworks. It's sort of like Ravinia, only not so *snooty nose*. There is an old pioneer town in conjunction with the concert area, and I will get a wheelchair so I can enjoy the museum and buildings and not get too tired. Have you seen all the new things that they have done to the Genesee Theater? I read about it, and can hardly believe it. When my daughter was little, she was part of a children's theater group that performed there, and I loved the big old organ that came up out of the pit. I wonder if they still have it? We went to see Copperfield there and had front row seats, still couldn't figure out how he does his illusions. Rest up, and glad you had such fun, Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
