Bryce Night Sky 05/15/2010 — Moon and Venus, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah
Dear hearts and gentle people,
My tardiness with the day's posting
is due to my wife and I doing our best
to royally entertain the Norovirus
as it likes to be entertained.
You will be proud of us to know
that we have not slacked off one bit,
but have done everything that could possibly
be asked of us in carrying through on our end
of the bargain.

It is too early yet to tell
whether we have been such good hosts
that Noro (As we are calling our happy guest)
will want to stay tomorrow as well,
and I trust that will be apparent to you all
in good time.

Until we are back on the road again,
Good night and good luck!

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.

  1. Hope you both recover fast! I think you should refrain from entertaining your ‘virus guest’ more than necessary, keeping your hospitality to the bare minimum, so he decides to leave quickly 🙂 Although, I am sure its (hopefully) brief visit with you, will inspire another facet of wisdom and insight in your words when you are feeling better!

  2. So sorry you both are suffering. I like your sense of humor because that always helps when you’re not up to your usual game. Hoping your guests leave swiftly and you’re both healthy ASAP!
