The Soft July Evening with Garrison at Tanglewood
Garrison Keillor is a lot of fun close up. We are heading tonight for our fourth annual pilgrimage to watch the recording of the last Prairie Home Companion show tonight at Tanglewood. The lawn picnic we prepare is usually luscious…with Bill’s strawberries and snap peas, fine chilled wines, delicacies from Whole Foods, cheeses and luscious desserts. The folks here take their picnicing seriously, with elaborate candleabra, linen and clinking crystal glasses.
After the picnic, in the gloriously soft July light of Tanglewood, we’ll walk up and take our seats in the shed…and be transported by that voice, singing that song, “I hear the band a playin’….and we’ll be right there with him once again!

How envious am I! I’m watching it on PBS right now. A day late but great production value. I’ve been listening since I was 15, brilliant show.
