Cheers

Brent in Sable, on his 19th Birthday

I know Brent (who secretly lurks around the blog) joins me in saying thank you all for your prayers. It was a wonderful, wonderful trip - I hope for you all to go one day. A strong dose of beauty and grace is great medicine for the soul. Great, great.

However.....good luck not being depressed, Brent, when you go to mass tomorrow. I went this evening and still can't get "Raise You Up on Eagle's Wings" (strummed on a guitar, of course) out of my head. At least the sermon was about Michael Landon. Jealous, Maureen?

There are downsides to being exposed to so much beauty. Serious downsides.

I love you all!!

I love you, Clare! Brent is very lucky to have you for a sister and share such a wonderful experience with you.

And YES I'm jealous!!!

Oh my! And wasn't I thinking just this very thing last Sunday...for both of you?

I can tell you this much: that your week away was one of the most emotionally packed weeks I've ever spent. And it was all about both of you and Solesmes.

Please come visit so you can re-cap.

And, isn't this just the best picture of Brent?
