WOW!
Thanks for posting - I hope to make it one Sunday after wife returns from her visit home to Louisiana. Finally - I have a place to pilgrimage to1
I'm from Lake Charles, LA. Where's home for y'all in Louisiana? I've not been there since I was 8 but I'd love to go back again. BTW, thanks for stopping by, Marc
Wow! That looks awesome. I have need now to drive through Omaha.
Hiya Chris,
Yes, I'd say that you do have reason. The place is HOLY GROUND. Serene, tranquil, and amazing.
If you do, I volunteer there on Tuesday afternoon. It'd be great to meet another Catholic blogger!
I'll keep that in mind. It will probably be a long time before I head that way, but it would be fun to check it out if I get a chance.
Take Care!
My wife's parents are Duplessis' and Thibodeauxs and they "came up" in New Orleans. Although now they live in a small town outside Houma (post - Katrina)called Independence. I lived in New Orleans for eight years. Most of the people we knew or worked with have been scattered hither and yon - but a nice thing that worked out was that our kids' godmother (she brought me back a rock from Assisi and a crucifix blessed by John Paul 2nd) wound up living right near her mom in Independence.
I hope to go back to Assisi someday. We were only there two nights last May and that was NOT long enough!
