Weekend Plans: Feb 26th 2011

We’re already at the end of February … wow, it really flew right by this year. The next thing you know we’ll be complaining about how the lawn is dying because it’s so hot. Here’s my February 22nd resolution (everyone makes these, right?): Every time I start to grouse about the heat this summer, I’m going to make an ice cold lemonade, go sit on the porch for 5 minutes, and think about how glad I am that the snow is not piled up to the railing.

Events & Activities

Flower Show, CT Convention Center, Thu 2/24 through Sun 2/27
Think spring with the 30th annual Connecticut Flower Show at the Convention Center this weekend. In addition to the usual displays and exhibits, there are also lots of seminars available at the show. We also see that the UCONN Co-op is offering free soil testing at their booth, if you can manager to get a half cup of dirt out of the ground…

Concora & Hartford Symphony Perform Bach, Sun 2/27 at 4:00
One of our clients will be participating in a week-long choral event that culminates with Concora’s collaboration with the Hartford Symphony. The concert will be held at the Immanuel Congregational Church in Hartford, check out the Concora website for more information. Have fun, Marion!

Academy Awards, Sun 2/27 at 8:30
Awards season for the beautiful people wraps up on Sunday evening with the Oscars. As usual, they’ll have a little something for everyone.

And bringing it all together on stage will be co-hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway.
