12/04/2022 December thoughts Webster Christmas Parade

Last night we drove the golf cart up the back path to Main St in Webster for the Christmas parade. It was small but nice. Since it’s a small town, they’re still allowed to throw candy for the kids. Well, at least some of them did. I remember when I was a kid my dad marched in the Orange Bowl parade with “The Merry Mummers” band. This is a “current” pic of the Mummers in Philadelphia, so you can get an idea of the brillian colors. 

This is a black & white of the Mummers back in the 1940’s. These were the kind of costumes I remember. 


I even have an album of them probably ruined by now, but it’s up in my daughters attic. Another one of those “hidden treasures” for my great grands. 
And, in keeping with my December reading challenge, I read Luke 4 this morning. 


There’s some good stuff in there! I think it’s funny the Devil thought he could temptJesus. After fasting for 40 days, knowing He was hungry and weak Satan tried to tempt Him with food. 


Then he tried to get Him to bow down and worship him! 

But Jesus knew Who He was and why He was sent here. 

Can we be so sure of our life? Happy December 4 to whoever is reading this.
