We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail! [President Bush]
Good morning!! Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!
WorldCom announced they will decide within the next three weeks whether they have to file for bankruptcy protection. Analysts seem to think it is a foregone conclusion. It would be the largest such filing in US history, doubling the size of the Enron folding.
An Al Qa'eda audio tape has a spokesperson assuring the world The Evil One and Mullah Omar are alive and well.
A group of parents in Oakland, CA, are suing the school district for violation of the Establishment Clause. No, this time it is not Christianity that is at question. The action focuses on what has popped up in the news of late about certain practices in public schools in Kantafordia. According to The Washington Times, the parents filed suit because the schools, after September 11, "encouraged students to wear Muslim robes, adopt Islamic names, and stage make-believe pilgrimages to Mecca to learn about the faith."
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
I'm allergic to snow. I just know I am.
Can you recommend any bed & breakfasts?
We have brochures coming out the kazoo, but it's hard to pinpoint the good ones.
Why the Cabot Trail?........why not the Evangeline Trail?
Did you go to Seaside?
Did you go to Charlottetown?
Is it absolutely gorgoeous.?
Were folks nice to you......Do they like Americans?
What season were you there....what was the weather like?
Was the ferry still "The Blue Nose"?
I agree with whomever, was it you Ohio?, said they feel close to God on the beach. The power of the waves, the rythmic calmness as the water moves in and out, listening to the birds, seeing the beauty of His wonder all around me, speaks to me of many of God's characteristics.
It also speaks to me of my place in this world. Although I have little actual power compared with One so great, He has set me above the angels and has crowned me with glory and honor.
I read Psalm 46 as part of my quiet time this morning. Psalm 46 ends with, " Cease striving and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations.
Beaches help me retain my perspective.

Actually, I took a tour of the Maritime Provinces - New Brunswick, PEI, Nova Scotia - it was terrific. Saw so much and was really overawed at the scenery and the stories.
We saw Anne of Green Gables, the Musical on stage in Charlottetown, PEI, and visited Green Gables. You'll love it.
That's exactly what I was looking to do........
...Right now, we have the Boston flight tickets, and know that Southwest Harbor, Maine is where we'll stay a few days......
