Even with the buses, trains, etc., its really doable. People will help you: people are people everywhere. Um, keep your cash in traveler's cheques in your deep pockets to be safe.<br /><br />Very glad the conversation with your mother went fairly well.The Ironic Catholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12990289461877567408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-54213962101755458602009-06-15T08:40:27.740-05:002009-06-15T08:40:27.740-05:00I don't know about anybody else, but I would l...I don't know about anybody else, but I would love to see the prequel to the adventure along with the adventure put into a book. This has been fantastic spiritual reading! <br /><br />Thanks for all the wonderful posts and for being willing to put your struggles (that I think so many of us share if we are willing to admit it) out there for all to see. You continue to be in my prayers.

Don’t worry; even though the east coast...Hi Adoro,<br /><br />Don’t worry; even though the east coast is more urban than other parts of the country, it’s still really, really beautiful. And the cities might actually start to grow on you, especially if you become a contemplative—because it means more nearby people to pray for! Too bad you won’t be stopping in New York. ;)<br /><br />By the way, I went to college about twenty minutes away from the Summit Dominicans. I think you’ll like northern New Jersey, since I don’t believe there’s a more densely “Catholic” part of the country. (Where I went to college, we had forty-four resident priests and about four different parishes within five miles of my school, not counting our on-campus chapel.)Sponsa Christihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07520407168481380210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-58288674070898693992009-06-14T09:32:25.527-05:002009-06-14T09:32:25.527-05:00Looking forward to it!

Not all of it is shareable, but enough of it is--and maybe just enough--to preach the goodness of Providence of God.Brother Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07780326836452864455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-35098877959068022532009-06-14T09:14:23.306-05:002009-06-14T09:14:23.306-05:00Ahh yes, I had suspicions it was my Summit Peeps! ...Ahh yes, I had suspicions it was my Summit Peeps! :) Sr. Mary Catherine is AWESOME! The Bathroom in the guest quarters is tiny and to open the windows in the bedroom you have to use this pole with a hook on it. It is awesome there... and so much time with Jesus. And they FEED you, A LOT! :) They kinda reminded me of my mom's grandmother in that way. <br /><br />I was continuously lost during LOTH but it was cool. <br /><br />Which reminds me I owe Sr. MC an email.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383107414127510288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-76560715379304997712009-06-14T08:10:38.735-05:002009-06-14T08:10:38.735-05:00Truly an adventure!
