Clare's Dad

It’s dark now when Clare finishes ballet classes and rehearsals. The floor-to-ceiling windows of the dance studios look pretty cool at night though—much cooler than I was able to get across in this photo. The dance school is in an early twentieth-century building on Main Street.  This new section juts out from the back of that building at an angle. Clare has been rehearsing for The Nutcracker for a few weeks and opens in less than a month.  We’ve got our tickets already.  To see it three times.

Speaking of holidays, I’ve got a couple of new holiday travel posts up at the UpTake blog—Plymouth Rock at Thanksgiving and New York City for Christmas. Makes you want to come to the Northeast, don’t they?
