Dancing and Drumming, Epilogue

Hadn’t seen Ivi all day until she popped in this evening for a few minutes on her way to stay at a friend’s house.  She was bustling with energy and enthusiasm, but reported that she was feeling some strained reaction in her muscles.  She had started the day by running a few miles, then did yoga later in the morning.  I think she did some zumba, too.  For three hours in the afternoon, she danced under the instruction of Sarah Lee Parker, with the African drummers laying down the beat  She tells us she loves this kind of exhilarating dancing!  Now we know exactly why Ivi is trying for a semester or two in Africa.

Saturday Morning Shopping

Abandoning our home following the crow invasion, Kim and Lawrence make a Saturday morning shopping round.   First, we encounter a fine-as-wine ’66 VW pickup and its owner, Jenny, in the WalMart parking lot; then we buy garlic at Farmers Market; and finally encounter an activist/fringe (would-be terrorist) group of knitters occupying the City Hall premises.
