Today is St. Nicholas Day. Way back when, during the late 1960s at old St. Dominic School, we used to line up our shoes outside the classroom door on December 6, at least those of us in the lowest grades. The teacher would then distract the class with an assignment of some sort. A few minutes later there would magically be a small trinket or two, and perhaps a couple pieces of candy, in our footwear. We would have a quick celebration before getting back to our school work. That is a fond memory of this old man.
Happy St. Nicholas Day.
