Yom Kippur + Barnes and Noble = Minhag

For the last four years, my father and I have taken a break from Yom Kippur davening by browsing together in the Barnes and Noble bookstore near my parents’ synagogue.  This year was no different, but like everything else we’ve done in the last few months, it was oh-so different.  You can read about our experience here.  Our previous years’ browsing adventures are detailed here and here.

Thankfully, that long, solemn day is now behind us and we’re on to Sukkot.  Chag sameach!

    is an astrological issue. the day of kippur has a specific influence you do not feel, but is there, strong. going to barnes and nobles, with your father may be a pleasant visit, but is very far from the essence of the day... have fun... for now.
