Charlotte's Web / Bonnie

We saw Charlotte's Web last night at Two Rivers Theater in Red Bank. It is a childrens' story, but was well and cleverly done by mostly adult actors. It is a story of a runt pig that is headed for the chopping block, but is saved by the actions of a smart and talented spider. Speaking of talent, I am always amazed at how much of it there is out there. Of course, these were professional actors, but nevertheless, I think they have day jobs too. It just seems that you can encounter good entertainment in many venues, be it theater, music or whatever right in your own back yard.

Our friend, Bonnie, passed away yesterday. She was a lovely person, just turned 61, also talented and a well liked teacher. Lung cancer got her in the end. I don't want to preach at anyone, but if any reader smokes, I urge you to do whatever it takes to give it up.
