It is commonly said that discretion is the better part of valor. Although
I typically like to “rough it” in cold temperatures and sit by the outdoor

We are still on for this Friday, January 30th at my house. Bring a rosary
and something faith-related to share.
Here is the signup:

Hope to see you there!
