Saint Nicholas in Colorado!


A local bishop?  No.  This is the man who portrays St. Nicholas in the two-weekend Winter Market in Georgetown Colorado (where my sister and brother-in-law live and my sister runs her shop, The Quilted Purl).

And here's a picture of Georgetown's St. Nicholas leading the local public school children who will be singing Christmas carols in a Santa Lucia procession through the center of Georgetown on both weekends of the Winter Market!

The real St. Nicholas was a local bishop, the Bishop of Myra (in modern Turkey). He died in the 4th century.
