Watching a performance is a bit of a large task in a small rural town, on a school night, at short notice, with limited funds, and no babysitter.  But literal terms it doesn't have to be.  Instead I took watching a performance to be whatever caught my eye.  Today it happened to be my two children indulging in a walk where the snow was melting and the temps were rubber boot and spring jacket warm.  Watching them run across big melting snow piles, stomp through slushy water, kick chunks of melting soft snow, and run at full speed up clear pavement roadways was quite the performance.  I enjoyed it, it brought me peace and happiness so I call that a win.
