Long week, both at work and home. Went to get food for a stew tomorrow (❄️❄️ predicted, our first if it comes!) This picture from the grocery store parking lot gave me pause and filled my heart. I missed the town tree lighting this year so had not seen the tree all dressed up. Have not had time to get our tree up yet, so this felt Christmasy.🎄🎄Love the purple/blue tones.
Texreader I️ ❤️ this photo too! 7y

DebbieGrillo It's a Nor'easter. You get it first, then us. 6-8" by the time it gets here tomorrow night. Stew sounds like a good plan. 7y

kspenmoll @Texreader @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @DebbieGrillo @Cathythoughts @Mdargusch It is gorgeous, evoking peace within me.❤️sending that feeling to you.New Englandy picture. 💒🎄Rebellious Puritans such as Thomas Hooker fled to CT in 1600‘s and established a more free style of Church, inevitably inspiring the Fundamental Orders of CT, first representative form of gov/Constitution in colonies.😀 7y
kspenmoll The church pictured is Congregational, one of three churches built since 1683. This one in 1830. In 1965 parts were restored after a fire. Martin Luther King attended services here as well as others,during his two summers he came to work in nearby tobacco fields. He was amazed he could worship with whites. https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.nytimes.com/2016/06/12/nyregion/martin-luthe... (edited) 7y

Mdargusch It‘s very interesting to me! 7y
ValerieAndBooks Whenever we stay in Hartford (remember my daughter goes to school there), off in the near distance, from our hotel, we see a New England church that looks like this one. Maybe it is the same one! 7y
kspenmoll @ValerieAndBooks There are many churches like this in the area- what town/hotel do you stay in? If you ever have time & want to, (but I know you are with family & your daughter probably just wants to get home!),get in touch. Email: kspenmoll@gmail.com 7y
ValerieAndBooks I‘ve added you to my address book 😊. Would love to meet up when I have the chance! We usually stay at the Hilton by the XL Center (hubby gets points for staying at Hilton‘s). 7y
