Epiphany
Today, January 6, is the Feast of the Epiphany, celebrating the visit of the Magi to the infant Jesus. Practices vary, but, where I come from, the day marks the end of the Christmas season, or Yuletide, and signals the time to take down trees, ornaments, and lights.

Nice triplet, Bill. Again, good to see you; now I step aside for a bit. _m
Angelika and M, thanks for coming by.
M, do you mean we won't be seeing your work for a while. Don't stay away too long (But who am I to talk?)
Angelika, You make me want to get on a plane and fly to see the cathedral for myself. Well, maybe next year . . .
