I can't believe that March came and went so quickly. In addition to my normal activities, I made a trip to visit Mitzi and her family in Omaha and a weekend trip to Greenville, AL for a Lions Club meeting.
The primary reason for the trip to Omaha when I did (and risk SNOW) was to attend the musical production Of "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" that was performed by the Papillion-LaVista Monarch Theater and Music Department. Christian was an understudy for the part of Benjamin (one of the brothers) and performed that role on the Thursday night that I arrived. He played the part of Jeb, one of the town boys, in the other performances. He really did a good job and he really enjoyed it. Another really good reason to go to Omaha was to see Alyssa and her adorable son, Logan. He is a very good natured baby and smiles all the time. I hope he keeps his wonderful disposition!
While I was in Omaha, I got to visit Mitzi's new office with the ALA. They have just recently moved to their new offices and were having an open house with lots of goodies. Mitzi made a fabulous hot wing dip and an artichoke/cheese spread that we ate for several days. It was strange being in Omaha without Lucy and Bob or Buddy and his family.
The Lions Club District Convention for 34 N was held in Greenville, AL, the end of the month. I went down on Friday and participated in the preliminary events which included a dinner and show. The weather was treatening but held off until after everything was over that night. It stormed all night and I got very little sleep. The meeting started Saturday with a fun walk to raise money for the camp for children with diabetes (which we had to do inside). The meeting was well attended in spite of the weather. By the time we finished, it was beautiful outside. Greenville is a typical old south town and there are a lot of historical buildings and gardens. I was ready to go home and didn't linger around to see any sites or take any pictures.
