When it Rains, It Pours

Houston, Texas

Bring on the heat!  We were headed south again and into warm weather and sun…or at least we thought so.  Having sent 40 bags ahead of our scheduled flight everyone was able to have their bags including carry-ons as soon as we arrived at our final destination airport in Houston.  This hasn’t happened in I don’t know how long; quite a nice surprise. 

However, we were in for an unpleasant surprise soon. 


Even though we left the cold behind, we must have brought stormy weather with us.  Literally, everyday there was some sort of rain or thunderstorms.  The Queen really has cursed the land we travel to each week.  Not really, but that’s the way it seems to be for us. 

It got to the point that the thunder was working with the show and each entrance or pyrotechnic cue went off with a bang of thunder to accompany it.    


And if we weren’t wet enough from the rain outside, we were definitely soaked from the water that was lying on the ice. 

Since we were performing in our second football stadium of the year there were a few things that we could expect, and tank ice (manmade ice) was one.  However, coming off the ice and feeling the water all the way through your layers and in your skates was not one.  Nothing ever dried.


We made it through though with some pretty good laughs I might add as well as some yummy dinners out and new memories.

Special thank you to Lisa Scuffell for coming back and making it feel like we are a true family again just like back in rehearsals.   Also, to Natasha Kuchiki and Cindy Stewart for coming to visit!!
