Christmas EVE

We spent the day visiting St. John the Divine Episcopal Church today. They have an exhibition of Artists work focusing on WATER... It's an amazing church, that is very open and all encompassing, and very focused on Arts and environment... Just lovely...  Love the white paper cranes all over the tree...

They have three ROTHKO's in the exhibit... Rothko in a  church... How cool is that?

 The Church has many many Christmas trees and the SMELL of them is just heavenly...



Art in a quiet place. 

Remembering friends we've lost this year...  

Gratitude.

And came  home and found this gift in my mail box... Thank you State of NY.

Merry Christmas, from my family to yours!  (Baby, it's COLD outside!)

    These old churches are so beautiful. One of the reasons I am totally attracted to Rome and New Orleans! LOL. Well, the ONLY reason I am attracted to New Orleans anymore.

    Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family!
