Mamma Mia - Sunday, July 27, 2008

Donna and I decided to go to a movie for the first time in several years. It was a fun musical with ABBA songs. The tiny Greek island of Skopelos was a great setting.
Our friends, Bonnie and Bill were at the same movie in the row behind us, so we had a chance to visit. The theater is new to Tomball, the Silverado.

Meryl Streep leads an all-star cast in the feature-film adaptation of the beloved musical that has been seen by more than 30 million people in 160 cities and 8 languages around the world. Bringing the timeless lyrics and melodies of iconic super group ABBA to movie audiences, Summer 2008 is the season for 'Mamma Mia!'

Silver Eagles Poem

The second Monday of each month is the day we retired guys have wings and beer at Hooters. We go at 1:15 pm to avoid the lunch hour rush. Many are from our subdivision but we also are joined by area friends.

Liberty Opry – Saturday, July 12, 2008

Our Cypreswood 50 Plus Club will take a Harris County Pct 4 bus to the Liberty Opry for a "Inspirational" All Gospel Show. Performance by Bill Adkins, Paul Vick, Jay Cantu, Margie LeBlanc, Matt Moody, Shelby Tillery, Karla Burris, Jim Cox, John Ray Baxter, Jim Black and Ray Sowell.
We will have dinner at Ann’s Seafood in Liberty, "The Best You Can Get Without Your Own Net " before going to the show. The bus picks us up at the East Clubhouse here in our subdivision and the county pays for the bus, fuel and driver so the cost is minimul for our senior citizens.
