My sister-in-law, Marie, and my niece, Rose, are staying with us for the weekend while doing college visits in the area. After discovering Nico’s synthesizer in the basement, we were treated to a lovely concert. The acoustics in the house are such that her singing could be heard throughout. I managed to make the brief recording featured above.

I left the house early for my soccer match, while Jeanine, Marie, and Rose drove into Boston to have brunch with Maya and do some sightseeing. My team faced Medfield, our toughest opponent in the league, and had to settle for a scoreless tie, which was good enough to earn us a first-place finish for the season and qualify us for the playoffs with home-field advantage.

His bride’s family is from India, where celebrations involve vibrant attire, extensive food, music, and dance, with specific ceremonies varying by region and religion.
