On the eve of my 80th birthday, I was worried that I’d be alone, but as it turns out I have a fun time planned.

Pat invited me to lunch or dinner (my choice). Coincidentally, Jay and Molly are hosting an Ashokan special event: a Waltz-A-Thon. March 4th, can be shown as 3/4. That’s waltz time so they’re going to have three hours of waltzes featuring not only Jay and Molly but others who have submitted a video of a waltz. Even one of my favorites, Junior Dougherty, will be playing. Obviously I can’t miss it since last night Jay even mentioned (kiddingly) that it’ll be an evening to celebrate my birthday. So I’ll be waltzing alone and with Sophie from 7:00-10:00 but I’ll have lots of my music friends watching with me.

At 4:00 there’s also a Kings Point Garage Sale in the Vets Theater. I am picking up Pat at 3:30 and we’ll go to the sale for a short while then we’ll go to Fiore’s for a fish dinner. I should be back home by 7:00 for the Waltz-a-Thon.
