11 degrees on the New Haven Green................From the New Haven Register.........'This made Tuesday one of the most uncomfortable days of the year Fox said. It's really, really, really cold, and although we sometimes get thermometer temperatures lower than this, it's seldom that we get this combination of wind and cold.'
Pictures are up the Facebook site, for those who braved the weather...you have my heartfelt thanks. The total for the evening (why people go to the Fantasy of Lights after Christmas and in this weather???) was 188 cars. At $10 per car and with 100% going to the Easter Seals of New Haven.....all I can say is thank you.

One quick story, at the opening both George and myself were at the front gates for the first 15 minutes. Cars were arriving....pausing....doing circles around the first green. Then coming back, pausing, before coming through (upon our waving). If anything was asked, it was just, is this the right way in? This went on for about 15 minutes, until we realized that we forgot to turn an entrance sign 180 degrees. In large letters at the entrance to the park was a DO NOT ENTER sign. So yes you can take two Past Master's to charitable events but placing them in charge of the entrance gate..................well.......
