Recollections and thoughts on life in Minnesota and the midwest... My Catholic faith, my family, travels, the state. Occasional ramblings about an old smoker and the quest for perfect barbecue.

Messiah
Delayed in stlouis. Handel's Messiah has a way of making the wait bearable, with the haunting lyrics, ..... All we like sheep have gone astray. We have turned everyone to his own way.

Prayer for Lilly
I met you for the first time a few days ago. These are my prayers and thoughts for you....
- That you some day stand where I do, perhaps in the 2060's, and push back a tear over grey hair and hold your own grandchild.
- That you will some day kneel in prayer and thank God for your mom and your dad.
- May you soon feel the cool dirt in your fingers and plant something
- May you believe all your Church teaches about who you are, why you are, and who sent you.
- May your laughs be long and hearty
- May you make your Mom and Dad better people, as they did their parents
