Stu's Baptism

Last April, we were honored to be invited to the baptism of our dear friend, Stu Murray. It was held during the Easter Vigil celebration at their church (forgot the name) and it was a great way to spend the evening. The church was very cozy and nice and the celebration went smoothly although the fire alarm was activated when they lit a small bonfire inside the church during the start of the mass (oops!). I love going to baptisms especially when the one being baptized is no longer a baby. Sometimes we take our religion for granted since most of us are literally "born" into it but There's really something special about a person who chose to change and commit himself wholeheartedly to a new faith. We are proud of you Stu and thanks for sharing this night with us.

Central Park Rose Garden at Schenectady, NY

Last month we were told that there was a nice rose garden at the Central Park in Schenectady. We haven't been to the Central Park yet and heard a few sketchy stories about it (as with most "central parks") but at a whim, we decided to go and boy we were glad that we did. The Rose garden was full of different varieties of roses and is a treat if you like taking pictures of flowers. You can check out the history of the Garden here.
