Brief video of fall colors at Conception.
I am writing this blog on Thursday afternoon, October 22, and it is quite a day. We have had close to two inches of rain, the wind is blowing and it is getting colder. It is still raining right now so it will again be a while before farmers can get back in the field. I myself grew up on a farm near Brunswick, MO, so I guess I still have a little bit of the farmer in me. I had one brother who farmed, and although he is deceased, his son Kenny still farms. Last weekend it was nice with the sun shining and on Monday the sun was shining and it got up to 70 degrees or so. This week I'm attaching some pictures of the leaves turning so I guess fall is definitely here. Unfortunately we know that winter will follow. But, then there is beauty about the winter also. I always say I like the winter as long as I don't have to drive.
We had an electrical outage last night. It was not any of the new work we have had done but an older cable that was put underground some years ago already and was thought to be in good shape but it shorted out and so there was no electricity in St. Michael Hall. The electricians came immediately and got the lights back on in St. Michael's about 12:30 AM. They will in the next few days or so have to replace that underground cable.
Last weekend I was at St. Mary's Parish in St. Joseph for the Sunday Masses. Then I came back home and left soon after for Des Moines. Karen Ceckowski and I went up to meet with the oblates in that area on Sunday evening. We returned to Conception about noon on Monday.
God bless all of you and take care.
