…tunes posted

Marvel already mentioned my return from the coast. It was good to be there and participate in good times with good people, but it’s great to be home. I’ve posted some tunes on the music page that were part of this January’s songDemo…two “children’s” tunes and a little bit of Quaker history.

he’s back

Mauri returned yesterday from his month at the coast. We were both ready to resume our normal way of life. While talking on the phone and dropping each other e-mail notes is very nice, nothing quite measures up to the joys of cohabitation. Mauri gets as well as gives in those weeks of retreat ministry, […]

there and here

Mauri’s in his fourth and final week at the coast. You’ve seen some of the camera shots he’s passed my way (the last series included). Here are a couple from this morning. He took this one before morning prayers…

Nice, huh? He’s had another good experience being part of the leadership […]

“regalEagle”

He also sends me pictures of food he’s about to eat. Most of them include oysters in some shape or form. For now, I’m sticking with birds.

timing

It stormed last Friday night so I pulled the Jeep in the garage sideways after my shopping spree so I could open the back to unload without getting everything wet. I made a mental note to straighten it to make room for the van that Mauri would pull in the next morning from his week […]

invention’s mother?

Mauri’s at the coast to help lead four week-long retreats at Harbor Villa. Since he’s been doing this for several Januarys now, he’s learned how to settle into the nice space provided for him, making it “home.” The organizers provide good meals, but sometimes, especially now that he’s on Weight Watchers, he likes to have […]

Raise your hand if you see it.
