Snow and Stew

The first snow of the season fell last night and it is truly beautiful.  Kind of puts you into the spirit of the season. 

Yesterday we first visited the Christmas Fair at the Episcopal Church in Thomaston, where they were serving up some of the best lobster stew I have had in a long time.  They had a jazz accompaniment to the meal.   Then we toured the Thomaston Historical Society's Home for the Holidays.  For me, it was a disappointment.  Although the house had some wonderful historical details, the decorating for the season was all faux and the decorating of the home seemed a bit out of touch with the history of the house.  But it was fun to see, but not as nice as the Knox Mansion, which was totally done up for their open house.  Dinner at Lily Bistro rounded out the day.
