Today we attended services at the Smith Auditorium at Congregation Beth Israel. A young woman rabbi who was warm and relevant. Another woman rabbi educator gave a pertinent and informative sermon and two shofar blowers who couldn't blow the shofar for a darn were filled with good humor and gave it a good try. The congregation enjoyed their attempts. Abe, Liz and I all missed Jules, a professional French horn player who blew a heavenly shofar and trained all of the Bar and Bat Mitzvah kids back in Park Slope in the chanting of their torah portions.
We went for lunch at the 4 Seasons, a really delicious meal. The maitr d is a former NYC guy who reminds us so much of JERSEY BOYS. The last time we saw him was last year at Rosh Hashanah. We all remembered each other, wished each other l'shanah tovah and felt so happy to share the day with Liz.
