We had a quiet morning preparing for a busy afternoon and evening. Debbie and Peter had arranged an open house with people dropping in to meet me and say goodbye. I saw some people I had met originally at the Mass of Defication two Sundays ago. It was nice to have some time to get to know them better. I also met some of their friends for the first time this evening. Everyone was so friendly and pleasant. I had many very nice conversations and by the end of the evening my voice failing me.
I am going to attach pictures of most of the people I met today. When I get all the names I will add captions to each picture.
