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

ROME Day 0: Rain, Dubia Cardinal, and the Great Roman
I have found that uploading photos on the fly, literally, can be difficult. Hence, thin posting. On the way into Rome, there were some rather ominous clouds piling up. Sure enough. I got settled into the monolocale macolato and headed … Read More
