The stained glass in the Chapel are gorgeous. In the large windows, top register depicts the Old Testament and then the bottom shows their fulfillment in the New Testament. The details are from smaller, eye-level windows. I will try and provide some additional commentary or identification at a later date. […]

The neighborhood I live in has a small pond, off the historic Town Branch Creek, which runs behind my house. It is a typical suburban track-home neighborhood, with houses barely 8 feet apart, but we are right on the edge nature and it has always surprised me how much flora […]
This week began our “self-isolation” in Lexington, Kentucky. More or less. The University is closing up, restaurants and bars have shut down, but we can still get take-out, gas, and go to the grocery stores. Spring is also coming in with force and it is beautiful. The birds are raucous […]
