Living at the SLI becomes addicting and before you know it you haven't left the site for days. Feeling the itch Roby and I decided to get spiffied up and hit the town. This meant taking a shower and putting on a different pair of jeans and new shirt. No interns just the two of us. We headed into the big town of Ukiah for dinner and a play. As I have mentioned before the small towns in Mendocino County are big into the theater and culture. Every weekend a new event or fundraiser is happening. We decided to check out the local Thai restaurant called Happy Thai. What a coincidence when we walked in we saw several references to Kauai on their bulletin board. We knew we had come to the right place. A quick meal of Pad Thai and we were off to the the theater. We went to see Shakespeare's A Comedy of Errors. They had a twist and added their Circus Performers throughout the play. In Mendocino County they have an organization to promote and teach the circus arts ranging from walking on stilts to trapeze type acrobats on aerial hoops or tricks with the aerial silks. It brought a great visual to the play. For a little town they produced an excellent show and even got their Shakespearean English correct.
This evening reminded me of our real first date over twenty one years ago!!
