Huge crowd last night for the library Family Movie Night showing of Tangled<\/em>.\u00a0 It was so nice to see so many people having a great time at the library, for a free movie with great community spirit.\u00a0 At one point mid-way through the movie, a father came up to me and introduced himself, then said, “This is great!\u00a0 This is so great!!\u00a0 This is reminding me why we decided to move to this town in the first place!!”\u00a0 And it might have been the lighting, but I could swear his eyes were a little misty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Of course, after the movie was over, it looked like there had been a popcorn explosion, and there were empty water bottles strewn all over the floor.\u00a0 Luckily, there were six able bodied teen volunteers who made short work of the clean-up (and, it should be noted, they also did a terrific job before the movie filling 120 small bags with popcorn).\u00a0<\/p>\n

The only downside of the night for me was that I didn’t like the movie.\u00a0 At all.\u00a0 I know it’s gotten good reviews, and I know that kids adore it, but I didn’t like characters, the plot, or the singing.\u00a0 I guess I’ve gotten old and grumpy and those Disney musical animated features just don’t do it for me anymore.\u00a0\u00a0 But my opinion really doesn’t matter, since the kids and their parents had a fantastic time; last night was a true small town event, with kids lying on their bellies on the floor next to their friends and their parents sitting in the seats sharing gossip and laughs with their friends.\u00a0 Awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
