Harley Holds Court


Harley has found a bunch of really really cool guys and the guys fell in love with the little really cool critter. What can you say.

After a mini-concert for the MENC staff in the recital room, The King's Singers sat down for a light meal and Harley was the toast of the room. He got himself all dressed up in his holiday finery (thank you JG for hat and scarf) and proceeded to make lasting friendships with the guys. It did get a little out of control after Harley gulped down a cup of peppermint tea and ended up having to cover his eyes for a photo opt by the Christmas tree. He is learning that music performers are a really interesting breed. He noticed that all of these chaps had funny British accents. It will be a long time before Harley forgets this very special day and what a treat The King's Singers provided for everyone. WE LOVE YOU guys! Thank you for making our holidays a little brighter and taking time out of your busy schedule to drop by MENC!

As a post script, they were so taken with Harley that they all received a complimentary red dog to take home - some to their children, some to travel with, and some to just love. As they drove out of the MENC parking lot hanging out the car windows- they all waved their Harleys high in the air! They were headed to Fairfax where they were preparing to do a night concert at George Mason University. Do you think they know to drive on the right side of the road? Should Harley be concerned? Will Harley have to hold court again and dismiss all traffic violations they receive in his world? Guess it is too late to ask!
