The Friday Five Good Things

Five good things that happened this week. And this week there are 5 😉

1. I'm back on Enders Island for another Sacred Art workshop, The Prayer of St. Francis

2. I've spent each morning at my little beach doing QiGong exercises. (I hope)

3. I've admired the work of Kathy Milici, the instructor, so I'm thrilled to be taking a class with her.

4. Did I mention the fabulous food? I hope Fruit of the Forest Pie is served for dessert.

5. Since I'm writing this blog post a few weeks ahead of time, I wonder if the Holy Gully is still sitting on top of the steeple?

How was your week?

    1. Sadly, the Holy Gully was not perched on the church steeple the entire week. At least, I did not see him on the steeple

  6. Such a beautiful place. Holy Gully at the top of the cross? It is not a saint?

    1. The Holy Gully was my name for the seagull that perched himself on top of the cross. Apparently, over the years, a seagull has decided the cross makes the perfect spot to survey his territory. I just found out the gull is named Gunther. There have been many Gunthers over the years.
