And if you don’t have a copy, treat yourself to a visit to the Rappahannock County Library. While you’re at it, bring back any overdue books and don’t worry about the embarassinent or the lines. It's “fine forgiveness’’ time. And if the book is overdue enough, they wouldn't ask anyway -they'd be so happy to have it back.

Re thankful that you’re not in Albania where the morning church service of Kpiphany is followed by Rlessing the Waters. The priest lowers the cross into the icy cold waters of a river or lake.
