reflection

I am totally enjoying the brevity and casual atmosphere of our Lenten services each Wednesday at noon.  I sat up front to get the full effect with less distraction.  Right before the service began an elderly gentlemen that has been a part of my life since before I was born took the front pew.  He was in my parents' wedding!  I told him who I was and I think he knew.  Sometimes minds get foggy.  

Our pastors Will and Dakota led a very spiritual and uplifting service and afterwards I was able to have a short conversation with Will about our mutual concern for a sister church.  It's the first time we've actually had a real talk,  Super guy as are Dakota and Ed.  I will always miss the ones who came before them but that's the Methodist way.

No politics today.  Period.  I went by mayor Mozella's house to scope out what flowers I want before they torch the place.  Even though it's falling in, it stands as a testament to a lot of fun, food and family.  And of all things, there's a big patch of turnip greens growing in the carport!
