three kings in kingston

Once again one of Mila Mina's wonderful little murals up at St. Mary's in Kingston provides an illustration, today for the Feast of the Epiphany. Here the Three Kings mark the end of the Christmas season, and the rest of the week will be given to taking down all the trees. Decorations will go back into boxes and taken again up to the attic. The house will look suddenly spare. There will be a small flurry for Chinese New Year's, then more for Valentine's Day. When is Easter this year?

No decorations for spring training but it is getting closer and closer. Yesterday I got totally sucked into MLBN's truncated rebroadcasts of the World Series. My instant resolution is no more for at least a week.
