Here's a perfect moment from my week. I hope you'll share yours, too.
Last week I went to this place...

...to see/hear these girls.(Shhhhhh. I have a secret crush on Amy Ray. Don't tell anyone.)
I love both songs on this clip. I've already perfect momented Perfect World (imagine that). And a passage from Closer to Fine has resonated for me in so many different situations over the last 20 years:
It's only life after all.
.
Darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety til I sank it.
Darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety til I sank it.
Love that. LOVE that.
The picnic/concert was put together by Mary Beth Graff, a long-time friend and amazing portrait artist.

As I tweeted (ha. that terminology still makes me laugh) Sunday night, "As I look around the dinner table tonight, I realize that we are all happy, healthy and here. I want to hold on to this moment forever."

i am so lucky to have you as a friend. you are a treasure.
let's do your family portraits soon ok? i promise--no cactus prickels this time! i have new secret spots!
if i had actually blogged in the past month i'd link up and post too. the concert was the highlight of my summer! can't wait for brandi!
Oooh, that does look and sound perfect! Thanks for sharing!
Ahhhh, my Chautauqua--how I love it. And what a PERFECT girl's outing it would make!
Often when I need a lift or need to change the direction of my mood or just need to remember that things will get better, I think of the Indigo Girls'
Closer to Fine
"There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
(the less I seek my source)
The closer I am to fine"
I felt the tension in my shoulders drain a bit just looking at that second picture. Time out with girl friends is a wonderful thing.
Oooh, perfect indeed! I LOVE the Indigo Girls. [Every five years or so I look back on my life, and I have a good laugh.]
I am incapable of turning on the girls without singing out louder than they are, therefore never actually hearing them sing!
What a perfect moment indeed!!
The Indigo Girls touched me too. I have to start listening to them again.
what a fun evening! lucky you.
That sounds like a perfect moment...the girls and the Indigo Girls. :)
Sounds like a wonderful outing!
No Way. You saw the Indigo Girls?!!! Shut up!
Oh, how wonderful! I feel more relax just looking at the pictures.
Ah, so jealous! I listen to the Indigo Girls on my iPod almost every day at work...
Sounds like a great time! I saw they were in town. I was a big fan of theirs 20 years ago! It's a great location for a concert!
