Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany


And our last service before leaving for Great Britain Tuesday. Last minute instructions, too.

Make sure you've got ALL your music. 

Make sure you've got your passport.

Chartered bus leaves for Dulles International promptly at 12:45 p.m. Be there!

Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany



If music is indeed food for the soul, then I was well fed yesterday. Sang for two morning services and choral evensong. Almost everything the choirs sang was music that we will be taking with us to England, including a couple of pieces composed especially for us. Busy week ahead as I prepare to be away for a while. Rehearsals, haircut, and a quick trip to the dentist.

Oh, and did you read about Trump ordering the Treasury Department to stop producing pennies?! So will everything now be rounded up or down to the nearest nickel? My bet is that we'll be rounding up. Inflationary? And what will I do now with all the pennies I've got stashed away in various places around the house?

Amaryllis


I suppose many of us have enjoyed these lovely flowers. This one was resting on my breakfast table this morning.

Rewards


Took the Tower Road coming down from Mount Toby's summit, which had its own rewards. The first was finding this Indian Pipe (above) growing along the side of the road. Another was this Flowering Raspberry (below).
