Working on the Thursday File for next week; listening to Alan Hovhaness’ Symphony number two . It was completed in 1955 and he named it ‘Mysterious Mountain’ – I love it.
Did you know his last symphony Symphony was No. 67 - 'Hymn to the Mountains', Op. 429 for orchestra - he finished it in 1992.

Beverly is out working; filling in for someone on vacation. She should be back for lunch. And since we did not go out for our breakfast, I’m hopeful we will have time for lunch but at a different location than we had plans for this morning. It looks like it could turn out to be a nice sunny day today

Yesterday was fun, we went out shopping after Beverly got back picked up some food and decided to spend the evening relaxing. We picked up to movies. The first one was ‘Flawless’ -- "Flawless" is a crime - drama set in 1960 London, where a soon to retire janitor (Michael Caine) convinces a glass-ceiling constrained American executive (Demi Moore) to help him steal a handful of diamonds from their employer, the London Diamond Corporation. "Flawless," written for the screen by Edward Anderson, is loosely based on an actual jewelry heist. It moved along slowly at first; some of the plot didn’t quite fit together but it all came together in the end. We both loved the movie. I think Michael Caine was great. The second movie (sadly to say) I picked out ‘Jumper’ -- A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between "Jumpers" and those who have sworn to kill them. With Hayden Christensen, Jamie Bell, Rachel Bilson and Samuel L. Jackson as the bad dud.
This was to some extent a let down. There were some interesting parts put at times when they were teleporting from one place to another it left one bewildered, the first time was great but then they overdid it. I liked Jackson and his white top.
