Theater Stages

I thought this stage for the play “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance” at Meadow Brook Theater, in Rochester, MI; was exceptional.

I also recently watched the film, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance”, and thought the play was much better than the film.

In case you are wondering how Saturday’s contest went for me.

I set an APF Masters 9 (80 to 84) raw deadlift record.

And Mike set several Personal Records and came extremely close to being designed Best Power Lifter at the meet.
