Field Trip Friday #62--Peter and the Starcatcher

Somewhere along the way, in recording activities, I have missed a Field Trip Friday.  I can't remember what we did last month before we went to Hawaii (the Friday right before I did packing and preparing because we had a whole week of field tripping, but before then, it's gone).  

Today we had a fantastic Field Trip activity.  We went to see the play Peter and the Starcatcher, based on the book by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson.  Brandt and I read it last year and loved it, then followed it up with the next three.  It was the fourth book that we read on our Idaho trip.  We were all excited to see it, and we quite liked the production.  Hale Center Theater is theater in the round with a relatively small space, so you can always see what's going on, even if you aren't really close.  Brandt and Blythe were both sad at intermission, thinking it was over, and then so pleased when we got another half.  Blythe liked it so much she begged me to begin reading her the book tonight at bedtime.  Yeah for good literature, and plays based on those good stories!


Blythe insisted that I be in one of the pictures.
