Description of Pictures: Monday, February 22, 2021 | 5:00pm
The Cathedral will toll the Bourdon bell 500 times, once for every 1,000 American COVID-19 deaths. The toll is expected to take about 45-50 minutes.
While visiting our grounds please remember that masks and social distancing are required. There will be no access to the inside of the Cathedral.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though.

2021 photos: Overnight trips this year: (May, October) After getting fully vaccinated, I made two trips down to Asheville, NC to visit my dad and his wife Dixie, and (July) Stockbridge, MA to see the Norman Rockwell Museum again as well as Daniel Chester French's place @ Chesterwood. Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: about 283,000, up slightly from 2020 levels but still really low.
