Good Old and Brand New

I love it when old and new technologies merge for fun.  Yesterday I picked up my granddaughter for a day of shopping and a sleep-over.  She had agreed to be my fashion consultant in the selection of gifts for my 'angel tree' girl.  As we were driving from her home to Kohl's (I had some really good coupons) she mentioned that a friend of hers was playing Snoopy in the Fort Wayne Youththeater production of "A Charlie Brown Christmas."  We decided it would be fun to go and she checked the times on her phone.  The play was on at noon, and by juggling our very flexible schedule for the day we could make that performance. Next step, still on her phone of course, she checked availability of tickets.  This was at 10:15am and she discovered that there were 4 tickets left.  She then used my credit card to reserve two of those tickets.  We did some quick shopping, got to the theater in plenty of time, our tickets were waiting, and we had a fine time enjoying the good old Charlie Brown story which was first aired as a TV show in the 60's, (very old tech). "Snoopy" did a great job with her part, as did all the other young actors, and she was delighted that my granddaughter was able to come and see the play. Isn't it fun when new tech and old tech create such a happy result?
