It is an adorable church -- very well built, with all the Gothic trimmings inside as well as out. Pretty stained glass windows of reasonable artistic merit -- hammerbeam roof inside -- lovely carved church furniture. It's very dark inside because of all the wood.

And yes, it's pretty much always warm in St. Simons. They had snow there ONCE - some time in the early 80s iirc. People made videos and SOLD them!

Hope you're doing o.k. with the snow. We got nothing - only a cold rain. Need to call daughter & make sure she's having fun. She meant to take her sled back to college with her, but didn't . . . they'll probably all have to steal trays from the cafeteria.

Ralph McInerny, the mystery writer and philosophy professor, has died. Rats! He was only 81, should have taken better care of himself.

We used the cafeteria trays (on the Interstate ramps!) when San Antonio got the snow in, iirc, January of 1985. Davidson is hillier than my area. If they’ve got this ice-mix, they’ll have plenty of sliding.

We’re huddled inside playing card games and listening to Jimmy Buffett.

I remember that snow. My dad was in Jamaica on business and it even snowed there; he called to tell us about the snow, and that they were ringing all the church bells down there, running around saying it was the end of the world.
