irish dance and

th at 6:45pm, and I am so excited to be able to see a live
performance of theirs! I know of the Elizabeth and her family through Thomas Aquinas College and common friends there. See

There is such a variety of beauty in this world ... some types of beauty appeal to some people while others feel attracted to a different sort. Well in case you wonder what really pulls my heart strings take a look through Twig Hutchisons portfolio. I felt enveloped in soft and mellow clouds of bliss while flipping through her classic website.
The Clear Creek Monastery annual work day last Saturday was a great success and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. There were several hundred volunteers from all over (many familiar faces and many new faces). Both my brothers and my dad were leaders - they had many groups stationed all over the monks very large property doing fence and repair work. I helped mostly in the kitchen where we had a large group of women and girls preparing food to feed the masses. Here are some photos from the monks picasa site: See photos
