This short film from director Kevin Susman is funny, sweet, and a bit corny but a clever concept. What if there were taxi cab services (in this case, confession) that allowed people to work their spiritual life into the hustle of daily business? A sort of mingling of sacred and ordinary time …
… Rick has some terrific pictures posted from a recent visit to Bread and Pupper Theater in Glover, Vt., a bit north of here. He and the family stopped by here on the way back, of course, for dinner at Finkerman’s. We take everyone to dinner at Finkermans. Anyway, check out the pics.

Finally got around to adding Flickr to the sites (this one, Milkweed Hill and the burdenfamily.net main page). It’s a great tool — and a lot more fun than any of the open source image galleries I’ve used on the site in the past. Hat tip to James H. and Rick, both of whom advocated [...]
A lovely wedding, for two most wonderful friends andgenuine people, amidst the herbs and flowers and rambling nature at PickityPlace in Mason, New Hampshire. The rainonly made the day more beautiful. It was also cool to have the residents and frequent visitors of the various apartments at “the Slab” back together again (hope you had [...]
