Thank you Less
For reminding me about the spelling bee. I was able to catch it from about round 8 on. Such a wide range of difficulty in the words, even on the championship list. For a while there, it seemed like Samir was getting all the easy words, and Aliya all the hard ones. And the final word was disappointingly easy, but non-musicians may disagree.
Magnus was quite interested for a while, even trying to figure out the spellings for himself. I think I see a bright future for my boy, though it's still a few years before he'll be eligible.
And I was quite excited when one of the words was one which had tripped me up in the state spelling competition lo these many years ago, and which is now forever engraved in my memory.
