The Head of the Hooch

Neither one of us slept well last night. On rare occasions, I can't go to sleep when I hit the bed, and after about 30 minutes, I just get up and go read or something. So I read for a while, and had the TV on for a while, and read in bed for a while. I finally did get to sleep, but even with the extra hour (from "falling back"), it wasn't nearly enough.

We had planned to go to the Tennessee Chamber Orchestra concert this afternoon. We went to the posted venue and the appropriate time, but all the doors were locked and there were very few cars in the parking lot. We walked around, and talked to a few other folks who had come. Nobody really knew what had happened, but we finally went back home after about 15 minutes. On checking the paper, John found the notice that said the concert had been postponed. Oh, well......

I found some leftover jambalaya in the freezer, and added some additional shrimp - a pretty good, easy dinner. That plus laundry was the sum total of my accomplishments for the day.

John went down to the Walnut Street bridge to take some photographs of the scullers in the Head of the Hooch regatta. That's the rowing event put on by the Atlanta Rowing Club, in conjunction with our Lookout Rowing Club. It's a huge event. John usually doesn't work in this one, so he went to take some pictures. Here are three of them.
