Three Weeks on the Road: Part I

Oh, do I like this picture. Although I look like the sour wrath of God, I'm as happy as can be. I'm in Austin, TX, at Ruth and Gene's home, where June and I spent such lovely time with June's brother and his wife, Ruth. I found the comfortablest chair for praying the psalms and reading Scripture from The Daily Prayer of the Church. The little oratory that Ruth and Gene built is full of images and candles, all wonderfully Hispanic in theme and style. Here it was wonderful to sing quietly the Magnificat, the Song of Mary just before bedtime. Thank you, Ruth and Gene, for setting aside in your home such a lovely room for prayer.
