A New Greek in Tacoma!

Flew to Tacoma with my son Don, in honor of a new Greek in our family, a new Greek in Tacoma, Washington!

Thanks to Kelly and Chris Rosati we flew north for the christening at St Nicholas Greek Church of their son, my grand nephew, Leo Rosati!  It was a week of fantastic ceremonialism, many family parties, lots of cousin-bonding, and a Greek Festival that brought my thoughts back to Athens 2004.

Ah, and the dancing of Clara and Anna, and the dancing feet of our little Leo along with the super music straight from Greece gave everyone such good energy.

Greek music was, without a doubt, one of the highlights of Athens 2004. Greek music, deep music, powerful music that makes everyone want to dance. Add...a full moon above our heads...the Acropolis shining brightly high up on the hill, and dancing on that ancient ground (with laughter at our mistakes)...dancing with the world.
