It warmed up a bit today, and the sun was shining. Definitely a good day. We biked this morning and ended up at a small country cemetery. We walked through the cemetery, pondering mortality and history. One of the graves listed a birth year of 1797, and the most recent burials were this year.
This evening we went to a free Halloween concert by the Tyler Community Band at Caldwell Auditorium. The concert was called "Wickedly Delightful" and featured all the band members and some of the audience in costume. One of the featured pieces was a medley of tunes from the musical Wicked.
We had our choice of seats. Evidently the concert was not well publicized, but Carol had found a listing in the paper. She's very good at that kind of research and had cut out several announcements of events and performances she thought we might enjoy. This one was fun, with some rousing music--and only 45 minutes long. We enjoyed it.
I made a new recipe for dinner, a variation on salmon cakes. These were made with mashed black beans, and we really enjoyed them. Ken admitted that he didn't even object to the seasoned canned collards the salmon cakes were served on.
