Vestry Graduate

Image
I am no longer part of the Vestry at Christ Church Norcross. I served my full term as the Buildings and Grounds liaison. It was three years. There were a lot of items to deal with over the years. But the effort wasn't the work. It was the responsibility and knowing that I wasn't doing enough. I think most people get that feeling with obligations. Maybe not. I am sure the time and responsibility will be quickly reallocated. When I signed on I figured I would learn something. Now I am thinking about what I learned along with the hows and whys. I think my Grandfather would have approved. He is mentioned on page 12 in the folowing time capsule. https://digitalarchives.episcopalarchives.org/the_witness/pdf/1941_Watermarked/Witness_19410515.pdf His noteworthy translation: Kant

My meeting in Nashville is winding down and I plan on being home Sunday. The place is kind of neat. I am not crazy about resorts and I am usually not interested in the commercialization of fun. But it is good to do something different and it will be good to be back home.

I had a good birthday Tuesday. Yes, I am another year older. I am currently in Nashville TN for a few days for work. And after traveling quite a bit for years I was unfortunate enough to have the Airline lose my luggage. Now I am scrambling to get what I need. I now own a new Golf shirt, Golf belt, Golf socks and Golf underwear. I am now even thinking about taking up golf. The cashier at a restaurant asked me a question about golf since I am obviously very knowledgeable about golf based on the money I drop on Golf clothes. I was happy with myself that I didn't freak out at the airline. They can't help it. They gave me a very informative pamphlet about lost luggage and educated me that I was carrying around a type 22D piece of baggage. There was a brief point where they started to point out where *I* made a mistake that lost my luggage, but I pointed out that I did everything in my control. Not that it could possibly be their fault, it did neutralize the discussion.

Now here is an Easter egg. It is "eggzilla." It is over 3 inches long by 2 inches. One of the chicks must have had to really work to get this one out. It is a whole omelet in one chicken egg.
