About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

I truly wish I could have made it down from Dallas for this. Looking forward to blog posts!
I have my name tag now and the booklet with the chants for Vespers etc.
I am so charged up! Vespers at 7:00!!
After Vespers, the vendors will be set up. I am so eager I can hardly wait. Can’t even lay down and take the nap I was supposed to take after the long drive.
Tomorrow promises to be fantastic!
