Christmas Trivia

It's beginning to look like Christmas around here. After some unseasonable warmer than average temperatures, we had a light snow yesterday and today. It was perfect, just enough to dust the ground and look pretty floating down from the sky but not enough to stay on the roads. Since, the subject of the last post was Christmas songs, I'll post Mike's trivia question that he came up with this year and see if anyone knows the answer...
----
Who is Parson Brown? (In the song "Winter Wonderland" the lyrics go..."In the meadow, we can build a snowman, and pretend that he is Parson Brown...")

Ha, funny, huh, how many times we've heard that song and really don't know what they are talking about...at least I know I had no idea...

Parson Brown:

When the song was written, a parson, also known as a Protestant minister, traveled among small towns to perform wedding ceremonies for those that did not have a local minister of their faith.
