Rush:
hi, Matt!
08-25 18:45
Matt:
Hello Rush!
Welcome home!
08-25 18:46
Rush:
Thank you!
And you too!
How have you been?
08-25 18:46
Matt:
Yes, but I’m traveling to PA next week, so I won’t be around next Monday
08-25 18:47
Rush:
Well, may you have a happy and safe trip!
08-25 18:47
Matt:
All is Ok, thnx…..yourself? How did the move go?
08-25 18:48
Rush:
Rachel is all moved in and today was her first day of classes. She’s doing fine and her fears of the unknown are pretty much gone!
She could not get over the fact that there are no period change bells!
08-25 18:48
Matt:
That’s wonderful. How are Mom/Pop handling it?
08-25 18:49
Rush:
Not too badly. It still feels strange not having her here with us, but we are driving distance away and we plan to see her on Monday.
We will be back in time for the chat.
08-25 18:49
Matt:
That works well
08-25 18:50
Rush:
Yes.
Three hours each way…not too bad.
08-25 18:51
Matt:
I understand the Phillies/Twins will be playing the Field of Dreams game next year in Iowa
08-25 18:51
Rush:
AH! The first I have heard about that. Good!
08-25 18:51
Matt:
I already planted the seed in my wife’s ear 
08-25 18:52
Rush:
I am glad that that game is happening again.
08-25 18:52
Rush:
There is a lot of work in the Field of Dreams area on a new baseball complex.
08-25 18:52
Matt:
Got to imagine tickets are not readily available
08-25 18:53
Rush:
A new, smallish ballpark is in the plans.
Sometimes the tickets are a part of a lottery.
08-25 18:53
Matt:
Ah……kinda takes away from the movie
I’ll keep that in mind
08-25 18:54
Matt:
So, Warren, OH looked wonderful!
08-25 18:55
Rush:
Yes, potentially, but it seems they are doing it “right.” The complex is not visible from the original Field of dreams site. It is over on the other side of a ridge.
Warren was GREAT!
The whole thing went off wonderfully.
08-25 18:55
Matt:
I’m happy everything went so well
08-25 18:55
Rush:
The reception from the public was better than I had hoped.
yes.
And the theater was magnificent!
08-25 18:55
Matt:
Looked like a GREAT turnout from the public actually
08-25 18:56
Rush:
This was just after the movie concluded.
08-25 18:56
Matt:
Beautiful theater
08-25 18:57
Rush:
Admittedly not a HUGE crowd…68 was the official count, but we were told that it was greater than the usual for a movie showing there. Mainly they have music performances there today.
08-25 18:58
Matt:
68 is pretty darn good for a reunion/Chan movie!
08-25 18:58
Rush:
Yes.
08-25 18:59
Rush:
Warren was a nice small town.
We all had a great time.
08-25 18:59
Matt:
When was the theater built?
08-25 18:59
Rush:
1923, I think.
08-25 19:00
Matt:
Nice
08-25 19:00
Rush:
It had fallen into disrepair, and the owner bought it and put a LOT into refurbishing it.
it really looks GREAT.
08-25 19:00
Matt:
Can you imagine CC films being played there……Opening Night?

Now that’s my favorite martian
08-25 19:30

Oh what a tanfgled web Ms Webb weaves.
08-25 19:30
Rush:
She doubles as a marching band leader…
08-25 19:30
