What a summer it's been so far

Wow! It has already been a crazy summer. I went straight from full-time substitute teaching to the opera and today is my first real day off. In that time I assisted the costume coordinator for The Mikado and the resident designer for Camelot. I also worked on dressing lists, helped out with the dressing staff during opening week and saw little of my friends and family. It feels good to have the opera open--I can now sit back and enjoy the shows for a while before it's time to close it all down for the winter. This is my ninth season with Utah Festival Opera. It really is a fun place to be, in spite of all the stress and stuff that comes up. I really enjoy it a lot.
I was lucky enough early-on in the season to take a day off for a little fishing with my dad and brother on free fishing day. It's a family tradition that I've participated in for as long as I can remember. We had a great time and managed to catch some good fish too.
I am currently getting ready for a fun night with the Michelles. We've not had time to spend together since May so we're taking advantage of a free Monday night to go on a picnic. I can't wait!
