Samhain Waning Thanksgiving Moon
Two days of interviews plus a tour day and all the attendant driving, 3 trips in and back, has left me with a good tired feeling. Participating on a hiring committee puts me in the guts of an organization again. I like that, even if it is only a volunteers part. It’s true, though, that in my work with the Presbytery much of my work came in situations where I had an extra-organizational role in what was happening, so this is not so different from that.
My embarrassment of riches tour today went well. Three folks came along and we spent our way wandering through the whole exhibit, talking and oohing and awing right along. I like this smaller, adult tour where we can work it as a casual stroll, thinking together about the art, offering ideas as we go along. I have two Thaw tours next week and I’m hoping for a better performance than with the Rochester Friends.
Another snow storm appears imminent, coming tomorrow night and Saturday. Thankfully I don’t have a commitment outside in that time frame. That way the driveway can get plowed, I can do the sidewalk and spread granite grit if necessary afterward. I’ll be able to enjoy the snow this time.
One of these days, when life slows down a little bit, I need to get the chainsaw out and take out the cedar and the amur maples broken by the first heavy snowfall.
