I felt a wonderful thing, a thing of peace and joy when you mentioned the monastery I viewed the site. Very nice. But isn't heaven on earth where you are right now?
Actually, though away from the fruit of the vine since December 5, I've always been kind of partial to the Christian Brothers. They have this fabulous place north of San Franciso, not so far from Cobb Mountain where they make things to warm body and soul. Every time I visited them they poured so generously and freely. <G> I of course favor their products because of where the "profit" is going to. They fund so many schools and universities. They don't follow the 1/3 or 1/2 rule. Because I attracted a bunch of Irishmen and Irishwomen into my life right now I keep a medicinal substance called Guinness in my refrigerator. I just took a look. No. Not a good time to taste of it. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "curtisdeltablues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > That's about all I can say right now though I haven't said much of > > anything in a screen and a half of typing. > > > > Thanks, I think you said plenty to satisfy a nosy person at the end of > the Internet! > > Ever hang out at the New Melleray Cistercian Monastery in Dubuque? > http://www.newmelleray.org/ Beautiful place.
