Humor Du Jour...



For my Female Friends....





Friendship and Compassion


Friendship and Compassion

"When we honestly ask ourselves which persons in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares."

-- From Out of Solitude by Henri Nouwen

Fishing!

In June, we met a friend at a small fishing resort in Wisconsin. It was a lot of fun, if only for a couple of days. The weather was great. We fished, and boated, and had some good meals. I'm ready to go back now!!!


Here is Connor, the award winning fisherman! Amazing he can hold that monster up!!!


Note the shocked look on Mary's face as she contemplates that HUGE fish!! I think she took a couple of steps back.


Here we are boating on the lake. Michele and Connor are in Kayaks and I am in a canoe with Emily, Nicholas, and Mary.



Here is the crew posing for an 'about to head home' picture. BooHoo.....
