Eek! And new art...


As I turned into the Welk Resort on the way up the hill to my pad, I saw this sign. It gave me a bit of a heart palpitation. Pimpernel is such a big show and we have so much to do. I know we can do it, but this week is going to be a wild journey. I'm praying for strength and stamina. Here we go!


I'm also getting a wee jump on posting my new Monday sketch on my "Squigs Knows His Lines" Facebook page. In honor of Valentine's Day, this piece features the first couple of the Broadway theatre (back in the day)... Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne. From their careers’ heydays in 1928 until their retirement in 1960 they only appeared onstage together and always spent summers hosting friends at their estate, Ten Chimneys, in Genesee Depot, Wisconsin. I highly recommend a visit to Ten Chimneys for a glimpse into the Lunts’ gracious hospitality. They are honored with their names on Broadway's beautiful Lunt-Fontanne Theatre and are even remembered in pop references such as “The Lunts of Blaine” line in Christopher Guest’s Waiting For Guffman.

So that's it for now. Don't expect to hear from me any time soon. Ha! Take care, all! Peace and love!
