Donna and I took an elevator with former Secretary of State Senator John Kerry
I greeted former Senator John Kerry in the elevator saying it was nice to see him again and that we had met twice- we hadn't, I had mistaken him for Thomas O'Neill III, whom we met when Donna's father and my father were still alive. I told Donna he was the senator and mentioned he went to Yale, to which he said "I did", but I kept thinking of the former Lieutenant Govenor for some reason. Senator Kerry said he knew I was talking about whom he knows as "Tommy". He gave me a salute of a raised arm to say nice to meet you. Donna's father was a high school principal and worked with Hubert Humphrey.

A visit from Dr. Scott Sunquist, usually I greet Dr. Elaine Phillips between services
Dr. Sunquist smiled enthusiaticly when I showed him my copy of his student writing in the student magazine "Debarim" published by Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary, of which he is now President. I asked him if there was always a methodology to Apologetics, to which he seemed to nod in the affirmative. His paper was on Arnobius of Sicca, who wrote "Against the Nations"., the methodology of Apologetics, and apparently the Astarte-Venus cult.

point of view shots of Donna's desk at Church Library
The library, built in 1809, is beautiful.
These two botttom photographs in particular were taken from behnd Donna's desk from where she checks in books with a scanner and removes the checkout cards. I discussed theology with a new minister today explaining to him that he was the eighth minster I have had a rapport with and that my questions are more precise after a decade. There have been ten or eleven I have known since attending.
