Sundance 2011 #2

If you thought the first 2 days were great, the next 2 got better and better!

After a crazy busy Friday and Saturday, Sunday and Monday had some relaxation time built in.

Sunday, after some exercise to work off the cocktails from the night prior, we hit Main Street for a little shopping. Jewelry was the focus on this trip. After that, we had 2 more movies-

Red State- the big Kevin Smith drama about the church against gays- think serious drama that resulted in protesters from that crazy church in Topeka, Kansas. The news coverage has been fun to read- and to be part of it was legendary! Be sure to check it out.

Cedar Rapids- A crazy funny comedy with Ed Helms, Anne Heche, John C Reilly and others. Never thought a flick about insurance sales could be so funny!

Monday, we were down to just 2 of us with Jen's departure on Sunday. We had another day of relaxation prior to our final 2 movies (boo hoo)-

The Details- Comedy turned drama turned love story with a great ensemble cast including Tobey Macguire, Elizabeth Banks, Ray Liotta, Kerry Washington, and Laura Linney. Wow. Strange plot, but fun to watch. Here think raccoons and worms. Seriously.

Perfect Sense- This one was a thinker- what happens when you start to lose your senses? First scent, then taste, next hearing, and ending with sight. You go crazy? The film with Ewan McGregor would say so. Weird...

That brought us to a half Tuesday to gather everything, eat a last "Sundance meal" and head to the airport. Last year I cried being sad it ended; this year I was simply so happy with a wonderful Sundance 2011 experience to reminisce about.

Boy, am I lucky to have the opportunity to enjoy this every year. What an experience! Sundance is incredible. I simply love it. The majority of Sundance 2011 is over. * Sigh * Pics will be posted. Hold your horses friends. They WILL come.
