RE: Twelve Drummers Drumming and the Unwreathing of Arlington

Such an interesting series Lady Denise and the differences between the dates of the festivals by other nations so well describe the differences between us as human beings. One would ask, why not one date for everybody?
But here we can see that we are not everybody Lol
Blessings and congrats on a great series!

Well, I started it it's more of a tongue in cheek and if I do. Partridge in the pear tree but I started looking up the history and decided that I would be able to carry a few of them with some of the photos I took. I just have a hard time with the maids-a-milking. I guess by the time that oil had changed to to one calendar, we weren't as globetrotting as we are today. Took time to arrange things send people were happy having celebrated Christmas January 7th for centuries. I am not sure I would want to change my traditions just because the rest of the world thought I should. There are actually quite a few that hold to the Julian calendar. I'm good with that and I am sure that there are some of them let's celebrate both holidays. Just as the Greek Orthodox here in the states used to celebrate several holidays or a lot of Jewish people in the United States celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah. We have such a intermingling of religions then one day I hope to be 1. I hope you and yours have a beautiful Sunday! I want to thank you for stopping by saying hello and leaving your words behind.

Well you have certainly weaved the Wigle magic to design the posts and an outstanding job was done.
Between you and I the date is not important methinks, as no one knows the actual birth date of the Christ. Some scholars even think that it was in June Lol.
Nothing wrong with sticking to the Julien calendar and to each his own.
All that I know is that you acquitted yourself very well with this task.
Congrats once again.
Blessings!
