Yippee! I feel so much better, even if it's not supposed to get much above 60 degrees today, at least the sun is shining. Ahh.
June 10--French School, The Departure for Jerusalem. Five men in a little boat, Emmaline thought as she sat snug in the church pew. It was raining cats and dogs and she watched the rain streak down the stained glass window. She had been walking from the British Museum toward a tube stop when the sky was split by a huge thunderclap and the rain came down with such force that she considered building an ark. Ducking her head, she followed a pair of black men's dress shoes up a flight of steps, through heavy caved doors, and into this church. She had no idea which church this was but she knew it wasn't a cathedral, it was too small and cozy. The rain on the blue glass made it look as if the little boat was sailing in the storm too. the flicker of votive candles and the faint smell of incense gave the place the feel of a sanctuary so she pulled her knitting from her bag and settled in to while away the storm in comfort.
Everybody having a good week?
--Barbara
