Unless I'm cooking, I don't read instructions. :hilarious:

I can never figure out new appliances, etc., so I desperately rely on the instructions in the box. However, hubs is exactly like you--never reads directions. I'll ask him where the directions are, and he'll tell me that he threw them out! Drives me crazy. :banghead: (Oddly enough, he always figures out everything, sans directions. :facepalm: )

Have you not seen the old Tim Allen show ?

What a weekend! Got the boy's stuff into his new digs. His roomies seem really nice. Apparently, they have struck up an agreement. He cooks dinner, they will clean up. Since my boy loves to cook, he thinks he got the best end of the bargain.

Sunday. Might not have been my most responsible parenting day. One that has to be up at 6AM on a school morning. One who has his first day of college, and mostly auditions the next day. But, we bought the tickets long before we realized it was day before start of classes. And it was wonderful.

It was an amazing night at Ravinia. And, both my kids got along with each other super great.
My videos kinda stunk. So enjoy this from the previous night.

The man is super human. To play trombone like that, and trumpet like that. Wow. And, to top it off, he does this circular breathing bit. Just over 7 minutes. But he had my kids pumped when he first came out with a trumpet raised in one hand, and a trombone raised in the other.

(also not my pic).
Great night, and had the girl home by 11, and the boy on campus by midnight, at which time he went straight to a practice room. There must have been some magic there, DS made the jazz band! He is looking forward to playing and touring with them. First gig Sunday.

What a great sound! I love the sound of brass instruments. Nice that your kids appreciate that kind of music(I will go out on a limb and say real music). Many nowadays do not.

That is so weird. I wonder where that is?
I might be wrong, but, I think that this is a prime example of how a still picture will tell a different story depending on the angle of the camera. I believe the building is perfectly level but the parking area, street and sidewalk is a severe downhill slope. If you hold the camera at the same direction as the slope, an edge to edge photo will look like that. Not a camera expert, but, I think that would make the parking, etc. look level and the building leaning backwards in the other direction.

@Goofyernmost beat me to it, but, yes, all they did was tilt the camera so that the street/parking looks level with the horizon, and not the building...note the street sign and railing post between the 2 white cars, the wires above, and the top of the phone/electrical pole in the far upper right of the pic. :)
