Advent

 

A look back at the fourth Sunday of Advent as celebrated at Bruton Parish in Colonial Williamsburg.

Grinding Stone

 

This was the year Colonial Williamsburg relocated its windmill. I just now recognized how the wreath maker incorporated a grinding stone this creation.

Christmas Rose

 

Merry Christmas everyone!

Furnace

 

Not the most Christmassy of photographs, to be sure. But given the intense cold that so many of us are experiencing right now, I thought it nonetheless appropriate. This is the gunsmith's furnace in Colonial Williamsburg. Most telling, though, is this next photograph taken just moments after the tourists above had left. :-) Stay warm!

Fairyland

 

I thought those potted Christmas trees with pineapples on top in the background lent a sort of fairyland quality to this Colonial Williamsburg house. Quite apropos, especially considering the weather that is about to move in--freezing temps and high winds. Brr!! Hope you're able to stay warm and dry wherever you are.

By the way, here's a link to some fabulous seasonal music, in case you were looking. :-)
