Touchdown...

After a long pause...

Just returned to Minneapolis from an uneventful overnight trip to Raleigh, NC. Everything is so dry here in Minnesota; must be the driest summer in years.

Last night, alone in the hotel room, I had an exquisite experience of God's presence. I was able to pray, if but haltingly and self-consciously.

On the plane today, I read an article in Harpers Magazine that left me questioning the value of the industry I work in. Food for thought at a later moment, perhaps.

On the way home in a taxi - darkness begins to fall. Looking forward to a couple of hours relaxation with my man.

But first, the thirsty lawn needs watering...
