Post #7 - Moonlight Sonata - Due Thursday, April 20th

"Don't tell me the moon is shinning; show me the glint of light on broken glass." -- Antone Chekov

After the horrendous storm, the neighborhood makes an effort to clean-up things. Everyone tries to pitch-in, some more successfully than others.

As sunset approaches, a small festival with a few rides and some folk music gather in the park. A small stage is set-up on the basketball court.  There is the smell of fresh baked goods wafting around.

As the sun goes down, an outdoor movie screen is raised and  "The Little Mermaid" is the feature.  Everyone seems happy about that.

Since the evening is so pleasant, people are reluctant to leave and return indoors.  There's an announcement at the end of the movie that at 2AM there will be a lunar eclipse.  The moon will be full. People are excited.

Later, as the moon reappears and people make their way home, some notice that St. Cecilia's church is completely gone, leaving in its place one, single pew.
