Notre Dame Returns!
A global-wide celebration begins today for the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral after the devastating fire that closed it for three years. The opening of this faith center marks a substantial contribution to the history of this grand monument, but also shines a light on the crafting of every cathedral. These great cathedrals not only provided multi-generational employment for urban centers, but also spiritual and cultural centers for residents and visitors. It always confounds me that these cathedrals were dreamed and planned by dreamers and workers who would never see their completion. Do we begin ventures like this today? Perhaps we do when we plant trees, but in many cases our dreamers and planners do not think past their own lifespans. We need more of that. In any case, read more about cathedrals.

This looks like a really interesting blog, and I'm glad I dropped by. I'm a member of the Historical Novel Society e-mail list, and I saw a link there. I, too, have a blog. It's called The Writer's Daily Grind, and I'm always looking for new and interesting links. Please feel free to have a look at my blog. It's partly about the writing process, partly about other people's books, and also(because of what I'm writing, it wanders off into science and anthropology at times. I am taking the liberty of linking to your blog, because I like the look and what you've done!
