It's hard to imagine why the congregation never voted to rename the church.  Maybe it's full of people who have a sense of humor like mine.

Snow soccer, a few days ago




The three I love most


Another one from a few weeks ago

Jill declined to come outside when she realized it was raining (freezing rain, which is probably the same in her mind), so Erin and I sculpted a "Snow Jill."

Ice storm photo, a little late...

I know it was more than three weeks ago, but I'm just now getting around to taking photos off the camera and taking a look at them. I thought this one turned out well. It's a cute picture, and you can see what a wreck things are.

Message to WHAS TV 11


Dear Sir or Madam,

 

I watched WHAS's news coverage of the ice storm a few weeks ago, including the school closings. Your coverage was, as always, quite good. One additional thing stood out for me: the music that is played as the school closing list is run.

 

Your news station has used this same music for not just years, but decades!  I remember it being used when I was an elementary student in the '70s.

 

The music to which I refer is orchestral, and has a "Muzak" feel to it, and captures the mood of a snowy day perfectly. It brings back many fond memories, and has the thrill of being associated with the all-too-rare (for a child) snow days.

 

Can you tell me the name of this piece of music, and also tell me how long your station has used it?

 

Please never change it!  I enjoy it whenever I hear it.

I'll post any reply I receive.
