Violins in March

Just got back from a beautiful performance by the Northridge High School Chamber Strings, the Northridge High Chamber Orchestra and the full Northridge Orchesta, all featuring our lovely Reade playing her violin (sure, there were other musicans, too, but Reade was best!). We heard some Mozart and some Mission: Impossible themes and about five other pieces inbetween. A swell night, topped off with Daz Bog drinks. Oh, and Reade was the youngest performer there as well, as usual, as she's still an eighth grader playing her second year with the Northridge program. Signed: Proud Papa.

Baseball in Arizona

Some photos from a quick work trip to Arizona, where Eric was able to catch about 14 innings of Cactus League baseball. First, at Phoenix Municipal Stadium with the White Sox and A's:

Then, two days later, I caught the first half of a Rangers-Angels game in Tempe before heading to the airport. I caught a batting practice home run and saw an American tv star -- the guy who plays Mike Delfino on Desperate Housewives.
