I just had an amazing weekend. With mounting stress and deadlines, I needed a few days to focus on me. That is exactly what I did!
On Friday evening my Friendly Friday Fan Club was suspended while I attended a play with another club member and some local theatrical youth. The University of Evansville presented Shakespeare's Henry IV. Without a doubt, this was the best presentation of Shakespeare I have ever seen. (And I've been around the Shakespearean block) I was very impressed with the staging, and the modern interpretation of costuming. We attended in support of a friend, and left with a heightened perception of the human condition.
Saturday was filled with sun, fun, and bicycles. I was invited to attend the Little 500 at Indiana University. I have known about the Little 500 for years, so I jumped at the opportunity. It is the Superbowl of the amateur cycling world. I was warned by several past attendees that this was much more than a bicycle race. After all, it is only one part of "The World's Greatest College Weekend." While I am very proud of the college I attended, I can't help but think that I missed out on "the college experience" but not having attended a large Div I school. I have never seen a party that big. I know that Indiana is the party school, but really....I was impressed.
Sunday was to be dedicated to accomplishing my must-do list. Too bad it was sunny and I went for a nice long bike ride to the farm. Too bad I played at the farm for most of the afternoon. Oh well . . . there is always tomorrow.

Well done Andrew! Yes we all need an extended Sabbath in which we can refresh our mind, body, and soul by getting out of town and experiencing the beauty of God's creation.
