We went to the Easter vigil tonight at Most Precious Blood. I have always loved the Easter vigil Mass since the first time I was involved with RCIA about 5 years ago. Beautiful ceremonies, beautiful reading, beautiful psalms. We had 8 new Catholics with big smiles. I hope you all enjoy/enjoyed your Easter Mass as much as I did.
May the Lord bless you and keep you
I love you

Squirrel trouble.
About 8 years ago, Daniel and his friend Josh (Andrew's friend too) were building a pew for some lady friends of theirs that prayed together. One of the them bought a one gallon jug of wood glue. I have used some on and
off over the years. The last time was about 3 weeks ago to fix one of
the kitchen chairs. I left it out on top of a box I had built to hold
my collets for the lathe.
I went out this morning and noticed that my box was covered with glue. a squirrel had chewed a hole in it, and of course it didn't chew the whole near the top. The box had a slide in slide out lid which mean that on 3 sides the sides are higher than the lid. The glue had puddled up about 1/2 inch on the lid and very little had actually flowed over the side. Fortunately the glue was only partially dried. It took me 20 minutes or so to scrape the glue off the top. I spent another 15 minutes trying to scrape out of the groove, the glue that was holding the sliding lid in place. I finally ended up breaking the lid in pieces and prying it out the best I could. I still need to chisel out some of the residue and make a new lid.
I hate squirrels.
