No Shoes

On Sunday Amy and I had our spring recital. Close to 30 students performed. What a great night of music. We had candles burning, fresh flowers on stage, and a lovely reception afterwards in the lobby. Everything went great. It did make for a long day as both of us led music in church in the morning, then rushed to set up for the recital.

As we were cleaning up, the sound guy said that he would lock us in so he could go home. We propped the door open with a trash can as we loaded up stuff in my van. Our feet were so sore that we took off our shoes and did it barefoot. The heat index being over 100 degrees, it felt good!

I had just grabbed our purses and some microphone stands. I went out the door and when I released it, it popped the garbage can and the door latched shut. CLICK! So we were locked out, staring at our shoes in the lobby. After calling several church people and getting no help, we decided to leave the mess until the next day. I know one should not drive a vehicle with no shoes, but we had no choice.

We just laughed and laughed...two silly girls in a parking lot with no shoes!
