Note the Parisian Soiree


For the first time in a long time, we stayed in Ann Arbor over the weekend. We decided to take a pass on the frantic quest to squeeze in camping trips before winter sets in. Random highlights of the ‘Uneventful Weekend in Town’ warranted a blog post as it underscores the many benefits of living in Ann Arbor and sticking around the city limits every now and again!

On Friday evening, we hiked down to one of Ann Arbor’s community gems — the Kerrytown Concert House. Last minute ‘date night’ planning had me on their website perusing their themed concert series entitled, “A Parisian Soiree”. The program included a UofM concert violinist and various opera singers, all of whom entertainingly invoked the romantic and sassy nature of Parisian culture. Anna danced and giggled at the performances while ZMW and I sipped on champagne.

Not bad, eh?

Trust me, it was heavenly.

It also happened to rain all weekend and boy, was it the perfect excuse to stay indoors and relax after weeks of eventful weekends hiking outdoors, swimming in Lake Michigan or traveling, in general. To be sure, we stayed in on Sunday and napped intermittently THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE DAY to the pitter patter of the rain (:
