Pictures of the Season

Herewith some holiday pics from around the town (click on them for the Cinemax view):

Above is a picture of the tree at the Cos Cob Library. Note that the tree is standing straight and tall, while the column next to it appears to be leaning. Curious.


Now it's the tree that seems to be listing. This is at Luca's Restaurant on Church Street, where the Walruses & Carpenters and assorted spouses met for dinner last night.

And here they are, or at least some of them. Our pastor Bill Evertsberg (center) is flanked by his beautiful wife Kathy and Reader's Digest editor John Roberson. Dunno why Bill is looking at John instead of Kathy - unless maybe John is the one telling a joke this time. To the right are Dr. Phil McWhorter of Greenwich Hospital and his wife Linda, who is one of the best cooks in the parish. On this occasion we let Luca and his staff do the cooking.


This is local real estate guru David Ogilvy with his daughter, Field, at the historical society's annual Christmas party. David is a generous supporter of the society, as well as the Land Trust, not to mention just about every other worthy cause in town. Have you ever seen a better picture exemplifying paternal pride?

And here we have the historical society's tree lighting. Heather Cotter, Director of Education, is obviously pleased with the music provided by Santa's helpers; she and the choristers appear to have formed a mutual admiration society.
