weekend

The parish choir did a bus trip to Chicago and back on Saturday, one unique attempt among many in our fundraising efforts to support our trip to England in 2005. It was a group in and out deal.

I saw Leo Sowerby's organ at St. James Cathedral. That is to say, the organ which he played for many years.

Bought a few books at Borders and the Newberry Library bookstore and we got a great deal on a calphalon no-stick skillet at Crate & Barrel. Visited the Terra Museum of American Art. Borders and C&B pretty much maxed out my tolerance for seasonal shopping crowds.

Ate a long and delicious meal at Frontera Grill and got home by ten p.m.
