Christmas Eve

Picture of the Day


Christmas Eve morning, 2008

At some point, sometime, somewhere, sit down a minute, close your eyes, and remember.
Remember the building before the fire, whether it was St. Luke's Church, or Berardinelli's General Store, or Steeple Market.
Think about walking into the place. How it was laid out. Walking up the steps to take communion, or walking up the steps to the meat counter. Remember the faces. The different preists. Frank Beradinelli's face lighting up when he saw you and said hello. Betsy behind the counter. Jane, Mary, Pierre, Bernie, and everyone else who worked there.
The worn out tile on the floor. The shelves and where they were located.
The pews. The stained glass windows.
You're there, aren't you? As if it were yesterday.
Amazing how the mind can transport you through time.

I sat there a few Sundays or Fridays with my Great Grandmother Olive LeMay.
It was awe inspiring.

Good Memories that I hope I never forget.

Thanks Uncle Mike.
