A Full Day = More Napping
A host of activities can be exhausting
This morning we went to a seminar held by "Lucy's
Men"--featuring director William Ascher (husband of Elizabeth Montgomery) and
editor Dann Cahn. Since "I Love Lucy" was filmed with three cameras, Cahn
developed a three-headed Moviola editing machine, which was wheeled out on stage
and is being donated to the Lucy-Desi Museum here in
town.
Eric and I went to see some "Lucy
Show" publicity stills at the public library. I hopped onto the Internet there
and discovered on the Library version of Ancesty.com, giving me full access to
the U.S. Censuso f 1930, showing, among other records, my father's family when
he was 5 years old. I then took a nice nap while Eric went to the trivia
contest. He won the contest last
year.
That evening we went to the
Masquerade Ball at the Hotel Jamestown, which is now a senior residence, but the
ballrooms are used for private functions like this. Tonight it was a Masquerade
Ball. Eric and I went as Lucy fans. His friend Diana went as the fat lady who
sits on Lucy on the bustour episode. She sewed a squashed Lucy in a wig and
polkadot dress on the back of her dress. She won second prize. First prize was
the person dressed up as the two-headed dragon from the Scottish dream
episode.
The food again was absolutely
horrible. Considering how much money Lucy fans are doling out, they could at
least try to serve some decent food.
