Yesterday afternoon, the library
hosted a concert in the garden of the Queset House that
featured the Sharon Concert Band. A really good orchestra that put on a good show of concert faves and a few unusual
pieces as well. The weather was perfect, popcorn was free and wine and
beer were available. Couldn't ask for more on a Sunday afternoon.
Halfway through, the next door neighbor started mowing his lawn on the other side of a thin line of trees to deliberately disrupt the concert. It turns out, he has a gripe with the town and vents his frustrations in completely inappropriate and infantile ways. Ruining a concert for 100 people had no connection to his issue but this wasn't his first childish act and certainly wouldn't be his last. Fortunately, an audience members with a cool head walked over and succeeded in getting him to stop where the library staff knew that their involvement would only make it worse.
It is amazing and incomprehensible how grown people can act in such a way yet, if you think about it, we all know someone like this in our town.
And we wonder why we can't find peace and consenus in a world full of confusion.
