Well, Bardford...I've spent some time going through some of those links, and it's put my mind at ease. Aside from unforseeable calamaties, it looks as though we're headed toward a great evening.

As far as the decorating goes, I'm hoping that our serviceberries will ripen. Right outside the bay window in the living room are 2 serviceberry (a.k.a.Juneberry)trees which are covered in green berries. I'd like them to be red for the concert, please!
