The LP’s are getting unpacked, so anyone who doesn’t have as many as they want can go through the boxes of discards and take what they want.

Moving progress

The TV set and the stereo are now talking to each other. I still have to hook up the rear speakers for surround sound, but I feel much more moved in.

You are still welcome to arrive early to help with running up and down ladders and hanging things and getting things to work. Although I can reach all the boxes, there is still furniture that needs to be elsewhere, some of which I can use help with.

Weather cancellations

The official policy is that we cancel rehearsals if there’s a declared snow emergency in Cambridge. Of course everyone should make their own decisions about safety and comfort. If most people decide that their safety and comfort demand not coming to rehearsal, I will announce that there isn’t critical mass for a rehearsal and we aren’t having it.
