Voices live in every finite being,
Often undivined, near silence.
Hear them!
Hear them in you! in others!
They sense truth deep in all life;
They know the things true Pilgrims stand for.
Stand out!
Come to Him without the things the world brings;
Come to Him!
As a child and as a poor man.
He had all. He gave all.

Our Favorite Walk

We are very fortunate to live surrounded by cemeteries and parks. We do a lot of walking. Our favorite walk is the hour-long trek through St. Vincent's Park.
This is how we roll...
Here we are at the entrance to the park.

Sofie is such a trooper. The last thing she wanted to do was sit for a picture.

In parts of the trail you have to remind yourself that you're in the city.







I love this grove. It brings me a feeling a serenity.



This is a little chapel and grave yard that we pass by.







The trail circles Normandy Nursing Center, which used to be a catholic insane asylum-creepy, mysterious and beautiful. Aren't the spires cool?

Leaving the park.

  2. I remember doing that walk with you. It looks different in the fall - and with a helmet. :-)
