A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely. ~Roald Dahl

Follow Thee to a Tweet Seat on Broadway

Recently I posted about my Tweet Seat at Wynonna's concert in Hobbs, New Mexico.  What a great way to get the word out about a live performance!  I took my “job” very seriously.  After all, I was responsible to tweet every 15 minutes during Wy’s (yes, that’s how her followers refer to her) performance in exchange for a ticket. Folks who could not be there wanted to know a plethora of details such as what she was wearing, what she was singing, how she was interacting with the audience and any detail that I observed.

I came across another opportunity for a “Tweet Seat”, this time on Broadway, which I absolutely love.  Been there a few times.  I make sure that with each visit I see at least 2-3 live productions.  Do you love Broadway?

So, here’s the deal:  you have the opportunity to win a ticket to see “Godspell” on Broadway in return for tweeting during the production.  Unfortunately, I’m unable to go.  However, I hope that you’ll take advantage of this fabulous offer.  Click to see what it’s all about http://www.godspell.com/news/2012/02/tweet-seat-performance/

Be sure to let me know if you’re going to be Tweeting!

Love these vibrant colors!

I made some progress on my Marathon quilt.

I wonder what has captured its attention!

This beauty just came out the woods and stopped in front of us. Cinematic moment…
