February 2019

The preparation for moving and finishing the house consumes our time. We did an evening in Detroit again on a Saturday night.  Started at the Detroit Beer Company where we had an amazing dinner, followed by the DSO which played movie themes.  There was a rowdy bunch of guys next to us, even in the balcony, but they didn't ruin the evening... we moved.  The music was captivating, from The Magnificent Seven, to Superman, to Back to the Future.  The last seven minutes was the closing to E.T. which gave me goosebumps.  So after hearing this music, and then seeing Top Gun, Nick decided he wanted to learn the music for piano. His teacher helped him write a solid version, which he can nearly completely play now. I'll sneak of video of him playing eventually.  Along with the war documentaries, he's heavy into planes now.  A coworker sent an old John Wayne war movie, and Nick's watched it a couple of times.

Nick did get some time with friends, from a steak dinner at Blackrock with Jack, to his buddy Aiden who is a little older but has the same passion for trains. He's inspired to Nick to build a train table in our basement.  Soon, but not yet.

Few photos here this month.
