We saw a play last night at the University of Oklahoma theater entitled, "Anatomy of Gray". It was funny and sad and a glimpse into the past. The whole town was dying of typhoid fever and they had no idea what was making them sick. The set was minimalist in the extreme but the acting was so good that you soon forgot that the only props were two straight chairs and two wooden boxes.
We were late getting our seasons tickets so didn't have our same seats this year. Ours were equally good but we missed the two ladies we normally sat beside. They are getting so frail and one is barely getting around with a walker. Her father was one of O. U.'s early professors. My stepfather played on the O. U. football team in 1918. The university is a rich source of entertainment with plays, operas, dance
and art galleries. Not to mention football.
The weather here is so beautiful. Balmy fall days with almost no wind and temperatures in the high seventies. I only wish that this beloved season were not so short. Alas, winter is lurking around the cornor.
