BYRON & VERLYN'S MISSION TO THE WASHINGTON SEATTLE MISSION 2010-2012 FOR THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS
Wednesday, October 27, 2010
On our Pday Monday in addition to the normal washing, cleaning and grocery shopping. We were invited to go to Paramount Theater downtown. The theater was build in 1928, a rich woman here in Seattle donated 30 Million Dollars to get Paramount Theater back to it's original splendor. It's some what like the Capital Theater in down town SLC, but MUCH bigger and way MORE elegant and ornate. They were showing a Silent film called. "Regeneration" filmed in 1915 in New York. The original Wurlitzer Organ, also re-stored. Was played as background music by Jim Riggs. He travels all over the country playing the organs to enhance the silent movies like they used to do back in the day. This was a unique experience and one we will remember. I am trying to get some pictures on the Internet, so far no luck.
