The West Point Jewish Chapel Choir

The week after we returned from Palm Beach, we went back down again, with Chris and Suzie. We went because Felicia's son Michael was in the Jewish Chapel Choir at the West Point Military Academy. His choir group gave three different concerts in the Boynton Beach/Palm Beach area and Felicia and Chris and Suzie had a great time going to his concerts. (Felicia of course went to all three; the others went to the first one.)


There was a huge turnout at all the concerts; several hundred people showed up to hear the group. Not only did the Chapel Choir sing beautifully, but each choir member stepped forward and told a little bit about themselves, and they were not only interesting cadets from interesting places, but they were funny, too.




And Felicia got a big surprise when she found out that Michael was in a trio and had a solo! She never even knew he liked to sing. His voice was actually quite amazingly good. I am just repeating heresay, here, as I was in the car with Andres. So when the concert was finished and the cadets were ready to get on the bus to go to the homes of the members of the communities who were hosting them, Michael and a couple of his choir mates came outside to meet me.


Michael said, "So where's my new little sister?" and held me while wearing his handsome uniform. Felicia took some pictures and later made gouaches of some of the pictures she took. She's writing a children's book. The female cadets who were with Michael loved me and held me also. It is great to be a dog.
