Rembrandt material?

Julie took this photo of Max in Holland - it looks like they might be on a train. Don't you think Rembrandt would have loved to make a portrait of Max's face?

Today is Easter Day and after several days filled with dawn to dusk activity we decided not to go to the 6a.m. sunrise service, which would have involved getting up at 5a.m. or even earlier. But we were there for the 8:30a.m. choir  practice at Dummerston. Mary Westbrook-Geha was leading the choir so I didn't have to be there, but Ellen was the only alto available to sit next to an alto who needs someone next to her to lean on musically. I was actually one of five basses! We sang three pieces: Bob Moore's Easter Introit (with trumpet), William Billings' Easter Anthem, and Handel's Hallelujah Chorus (also with trumpet). The choir sounded great, but the congregation was fairly small - it seems not to swell much on Easter Sunday.

After church we picked up a NY Times and worked on the Spelling Bee at home. Then I took a nap - I did not sleep well last night - and when I woke up we came down to Katie and Savanna's for supper.
