Day 7: Cooperstown NY




I'm going to have to learn how to do this quickly - I'm actually genuinely working for the next few days. Well, as much as trying to be
nice to people and listening to beautiful music is ever work.

I promise to be witty and bitter again before the trip's out, but today was just a Good Day. Apologies to Laura M and Ken, whose work days back at base were slightly less satisfying.

Today’s statistics:
  • Opera seen: 1
  • Auditions heard: 22
  • Friends met: 3
  • Games of mini-golf won: let's not talk about it :)
  • Favourite license plate: DEVIENT (sic)
  • Batting average: .013
  • Breakfast: Black Cat Cafe, Sharon Springs
  • Lunch: Sal's Pizzeria, Cooperstown
  • Dinner: Thaw's Pavillion, Glimmerglass Opera / our living room
Today’s Discoveries:
  • Mozart's Aprite un po' quegli occhi = Elvis' (You're The) Devil in Disguise.
  • Samuel Morse lived in Cooperstown (but didn't invent baseball).
  • Chelsea Clinton's wedding tomorrow is just down the road but we weren't invited.
  • Christopher is a marvellously good loser. Don't know who he gets that from.
