At 'Ring of Fire' show w/Anastasia



Took Anastasia to see the musical made from the music of Johnny Cash. It was a great time!

I wasn't sure how this event would come off, since I've never been to the Actors Cabaret here in Eugene, and I really didn't know how the show would go. Turns out it was great!

Anastasia was by far the youngest Johnny Cash lover there, and we did get several looks from folks in attendance. She was excited because we were able to see the show, AND get waited on for desserts and drinks. I had cheesecake w/chocolate syrup (of course, chocolate...lol) and she had a very rich slice of chocolate cake.

The show was great, even though I've never really considered myself a musical fan, and I don't really know many Johnny Cash songs. They pretty much sang the whole time, while kinda narrating his life story at the same time. I was really entertained the whole time.

I personally was excited to not only be able to do something with my niece that I knew she would really appreciate, but also get involved with the local culture in Eugene, a dual benefit! I just read in this week's Eugene Weekly that the Ring of Fire was so popular that there is going to be a run of the show at a much bigger Eugene venue, the Hult Center! Nicely Done!

In closing, it was a great time for Anastasia and I!

Laters!
