resplendent

Wish I'd had the forethought to take a selfie: me in my camo shorts and Peter in his tux. Dude looks good in his tux, and as comfortable as I in my camo shorts. Perhaps that's because he's had to wear the suit for decades, as a symphony director, fundraiser and first-nighter. He told me that one of the things he taught students in his orchestral management class was how to tie a bow tie—on another person. He said conductors and guest stars arrive at concerts frequently needing someone to tie their bow ties. However, when his vest was missing a button, he was the only one on deck to fix it.
