"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Animal Friday.....

Late again....but it has been one of *those * weeks... I did come across an interview with a young Italian Bass-Baritone, Luca Pisaroni by way of a wonderful Opera Blog based out of Milan...titled "Opera Chic"...  Interesting for me to read about Signore Pisaroni, as he has sung with SF Opera a few times...but, what is more interesting to me and to you, my fellow "AW" members, is that he travels every where with his two dogs - a Golden Retriever named Lenny and a miniature Dachsund, Tristan.  Luca and his wife even have a FB page about their doggies....   love this photo it made me smile!

"Andiamo!  We're ready to hit the road!


Love,  ♥ Robin ♥

    There is no mistaking the real passion you have for opera Robin and I so enjoyed reading your account of The Heart of a Soldier. You know you have a real talent for narrative writing, I was caught up and carried along by your words and the imagining of the scenes as you described them ... you are a natural story teller. Just lovely to pop by and visit, as always with apologies for my many and lengthy absences just now. Warmest hugs xx Jos

    Josssssssssie! Ah, sorry, I have been remiss in keeping in touch! But, seeing you here has been wonderful! Thank you for your sweet words....we are both going through difficult times - emotionally - I am grateful you understand. Life has been particularly difficult these past two years....Opera and Blogging Friends have kept me afloat! *Heart of a Soldier* was an unexpected high.... and how lovely when something like this comes along. E-mail me and give me an update on YOU!

    Love, always,

    ♥ Robin ♥

    Dear Souly-B,

    My Ex has our dog...(he's 10 years old now)....I miss him....I so wish I could have a pet - but, alas, I live in a building where the owner doesn't allow any pets. I hope one day, I will be able to.....

    Hugs and Kisses right back you you!

    Love,

    ♥ Robin ♥
