INTERNET

 I just need to say the the trouble getting on the internet has been a big pain. I try several times in an evening and I can get on using my phone but not the computer, something about different band widths or ????. I really do not understand the whole thing but it is very frustrating to say the least.

corn hole game

 I played this game at Kirk and Holly place last summer and thought it would be a game for the Cathedral party on Easter Monday.  It is a game where teams throw a bean bag at a distant board with a hole. There is a scoring system and the best team wins. It was a several month project to get a game made. We just made the score card yesterday. So far in the office everyone has tried their hand at sinking a bean bag in the hole. I hope it is good fon on Easter Monday.

SCORE CARD, FOR GREEN AND RED TEAM


THE GOAL OF THE GAME TO GET  THE BEAN BAG IN THE HOLE. THE GAME BOARD IS 4 FEET BY 2 FEET AND THERE IS TWO BOARDS,  27 FEET APART. SO HERES HOPING IT IS A HIT AT THE EASTER MONDAY PARTY

New Canons of the Cathedral of Ascension

 Two priests from New York known for doing good works were installed as Canons last Friday.

Rev. Canon Kino Vitelli and Rev. Canon Michael Lopez. Both work closely with the marginalized. Michael is a monk in the Benedictine Monastery in New York City, This order has food and medical truck serving the needs on the street. Food truck called The Hungry Monk Rescue Truck.  Reminded me of my days at Street Health in the late 80’s.  

Those standing around with regalia on makes for a strange scene.

In group pic Michael is on Bishops right and kino on the left.

Great difficulty with internet

 Since last weekend , not able to get on line with computer to post pics of toilet launch. I am on my iPad so just words. Launch went well, I cut the ribbon and all the kids cheered. The Precentor prayed and all was well. Three weeks tomorrow I will land in Toronto. I understand your weather is terrible so for now all who have influence temp of 70 F would be really nice. Lol

It is rainy season so daytime temp may get up to 33c and down below 20 c at night, need a blankly as I am cold. It’s all relative it seems. Hopefully I can get internet on computer soon so I can show pics.
