Indigo Girls at Tarrytown Music Hall

Wicked Again
Yes, last night, we were Wicked again (oh, I mean we saw Wicked again). 😉 It was our eighth time (yes, we love it that much). We were taken by our wonderful goddaughter and her wonderful husband, dinner included (more on that after a quick review of the show). Thanks! There was a […]
