Dear John Paul, My husband and I retired almost six years ago and moved to South Florida. (Look up West Palm Beach on a map.... we live 15 minutes from the airport.) Since it’s always warm and usually summer-like weather here year-round, we never see snow unless we fly to Maryland to visit our family. It’s 76 degrees here today. Thanks for posting the great photos. God bless! Love, Mrs. Murphy Dohn
John Paul, I’m so happy you got snow too! My sons played in our snow and made a giant snowball and then sledded. We still have a little bit yet. I love how you showed the fun you had in words and photos. Keep up the great blogging!
Great photos, John Paul! I've really enjoyed your blog. If you want to check out my blog, go to http://finnsstories.blogspot.com. Did you know that in a few months my family is going to move to the town you're living in? I can't wait to meet you! - Finn
I like these pictures, John Paul. My granddaughter (14 months) loved walking in it and at one point started running and gave a great shout of joy. Looks like you enjoyed it as well.
Source Angelo was born in Jerusalem to Jewish parents who later converted to Christianity. At the age of eighteen, he and his twin brother became Carmelites. Angelo lived for five years as a hermit and then he went to Sicily to convert Jews. He was finally stabbed to death in 1220.
Joseph Priestley was born near Leeds, England, in 1733. He wanted to become a minister, yet he had been studying math, astronomy, and chemistry, too! Then he met Ben Franklin. They both happened to be in London at the same time, and Priestley decided to devote his life to science. (To be continued... From The Mystery of the Periodic Table)
Source St. Lazarus became Bishop of Milan in around 439. He is believed to have developed the Rogationtide litanies, and the First Council of Orleans approved the celebration of Rogationtide. At that time, the Ostrogoths were invading Italy, but Lazarus held up. He died on March 14, 450.
What fun pictures! I especially like the one with the caption "Sure having fun!". Wish I could frame it!
ReplyDeleteMy students really enjoyed the snow, too, and we're all crossing our fingers for another snow day soon!
Snow days are fun, I agree. Too bad the snow's melting back at our place! - John Paul
DeleteI'm so glad you guys got some snow! John Paul, did you take those pictures with your camera? They're great!!
ReplyDeleteYes, I did take those pictures with my new camera. - John Paul
