When I left Asheville early last Monday morning, it was snowing big, fat flakes. I think that was the third snow of the season for Asheville. Today was the first snow that we have had in Boston. There is something wrong with the weather story, but I think that we are getting ready to pay for the nice weather we have had so far.The goofy weather man (and I thought we only had those in North Carolina) is calling for snow 2 more times this week. This was the biggest pile of snow that I could find...as I was running to church.
This is the dining hall for the freshmen. They seem to think that they own the sidewalk as I just miss several of them as I ride to class on my bicycle. Now that they are wearing ear muffs, I am probably going to have to plow them down.
So when I got to church as the last bell tolled, This is how it is decorated for Advent. This is also how it is decorated for Thanksgiving, autumn, September, and any other event that I have attended. Dr. Peter Gomes announced that he did not care for Advent - this was not news to the congregation, but it was an interesting way to address the holidays. He actually made a very good point, but can you imagine
Guy announcing that in Asheville?!
A final word - I have been to Boston twice to find the King's Chapel. During those visits, I found a house that was empty, slipped on ice and walked literally for 2 hours. Someone needs to come to Boston to help me find this place - OR - I could have a new fancy phone with a GPS like other members of my family enjoy!
Happy Holidays!
