First Movie Night Tonight


To help celebrate Beau Ward's birthday, tonight will be the opening screening of the 3rd Season of the Roediger House Theatre Starry Night Cinema. This evening's film will be The Transporter. It's awesome to see the spring and summer roll around, because this great large parking area beside the house is perfect for outdoor movie nights. While last year had slim pickings (only three movie nights total), the first year was really awesome, with probably nine or ten showings. My original website for the house, the static
RoedigerHouse.com, has shots from that first summer of movie nights, with the screen and all.


Post-Movie Night Update [added Tue 05-26-09]:
The screen was up, the speakers taken outside, the projector warming up, the computer ready to play the movie...and the rains came. So the opening screening in the 3rd Season of Starry Night Cinema has been postponed. But there was a great, great turn-out, with lots of awesome people. And about half of them had not seen what was going on with the house, so there were quite a few tours given, which was great fun. Guest list included Ray, Shane, Beau, Stacey, Michelle "Moves," Jeremy & Connie & Emma and a couple of their friends, Kristin, Sarah, Chris & Kathleen, Josh, Danny, Ashley, Stephanie, Standish, Amy, Kerri & Corey, Jaime & Brian & Sammy, Jen & Jen, Bradley, Trevor, and Monica & Lisa. We all ended up with our lawn chairs up on the porch, hanging out and talking and eating cookies and popcorn and drinking. Then Monica brought in some tasty ribs and her award-winning mac-n-cheese, and many of us feasted. All in all, a pretty good alternative to the rained-out flick.
