Description of Pictures: COVID-19 Bell Toll EVENT COVID-19 BELL TOLL Wednesday, December 15, 2021 | 5:00pm
The Cathedral will toll the Bourdon bell 800 times, once for every 8,000 American COVID-19 deaths. The toll is expected to take about 80 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.

2021 photos: This year was filled with hope. Yes, the COVID-19 pandemic is still with us but it was hoped that restoring sanity to the White House. the rapid vaccine role-out, and a government that finally cared would put things back to normal again. But the force was strong in the evil anti-vaxxer movement and the virus variants made quick use of that so we're still dealing with this crap. Plus the continued impact of the Trump putsch attempt... Sigh. Trips this year: after getting fully vaccinated, I made a trip down to Asheville, NC in May to visit my dad and his wife Dixie and returned again in early October, in mid-July, I made a quick trip up to Stockbridge, MA to see the Norman Rockwell Museum again as well as Daniel Chester French's place @ Chesterwood. Number of photos taken this year: about 283,000, slightly up from 2020 but still really low.
