US Nationals: dance
We went to the first couple of sessions yesterday, but laid out of the novice ladies finals, and went in again for the junior dance short program: we slept most of the afternoon, which was a good thing. Better to miss a competition and end up with enough stamina to...
US Nationals: the dance section starts.
Jane and I are lazing today during the compulsory novice bits: the mandatory repetition of the same dance for every couple. A very good exposure of strengths and weaknesses of the couples, but not for the faint-hearted...or people getting sore knees from sitting for...
The Men’s Finals…Figure Skating Nationals…
Yesterday, the men's finals...quite a battle. When you have 5 serious contenders it's a battle; and both Jane and I favor the men's events because the athletics are spectacular, and, well, the scenery is always good. The standing ovation of the night went to Ryan...

Figure Skating Nationals—page 2
They've got an innovation on this year's Nationals, which is a sound track I wish they'd put as an alternate to the commentary on every network: they handed out 4000 little radios with a low, near monotone 'call' of the moves, level, and points...including 'count' on...
Figure Skating Nationals…and you’ll note our missing pages are back!
...we watched the pairs short and the men's short. We are strongly suspicious on the pairs judging...that the judges were going through mathematical gymnastics to keep one pair in the running. At one point there was an audience mutiny, on which I wish I had heard the...

Feeling better today…the ankle’s on the mend.
Yesterday was very hard. I've had too many funerals this last year. But today I'm up early, got the recyclables to the curb, got the tax reports done, and we're ready to go to Nationals. We're taking our notepads to do design work during the resurfacings, and we're...

Went to our friend’s memorial service today…
remarkable: there were over a thousand people there. Tomorrow Nationals start. Posting will keep up, but may be a shade sporadic.

Lynn affirms we will be able to recover the missing pages.
Yay! I've had a day: frantic running about, escorting a friend of OSG's, trying to mail about 300 lbs worth of packages, mostly books going to Selina Rosen; and I thought I'd lost my glasses at the post office the night before Nationals starts...but I'd laid them down...
