I fell in love with all things “Hamilton” in February of 2017. My mom asked me to download the mixtape for her, I gave it a listen and I was hooked. I segued to the original soundtrack a few days later and it’s been in rotation on my iPhone and car for the last 18 months.

I was on Facebook earlier this year and I saw an event for a Hamilton showing in Atlanta. I playfully said “going” and put up a witty (I thought) little post about seeing it. I had no idea it would turn out to be true.

Fast forward to May…I decided to just do it. IF things aligned..

I called my sister to see if she would be willing to watch the kids. Check!

I asked Becky if she wanted to go and if we had the weekend free. Check!

We looked to see if tickets were available at a price that wouldn’t cause us not to send the kids to college. Semi-check!

The show was amazing beyond words…so I won’t even try to provide any. All I can say is – if given the chance, check this out. History is amazing…and we must respect it and learn from it.
