Back Home Again in Indiana

Just back from a great trip.
First stop was Steubenville, OH to Franciscan University Summer Conferences.
This is our tenth year of Applied Biblical Studies and Defending the Faith conferences.
A fabulous opportunity to learn from some of the top Catholic apologists in the world in an extremely spiritual environment.
Then we spent a few days in Washington DC. Highlights of the trip were a visit to the Capitol Building, Arlington Cemetery, and the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception on the campus of Catholic University. On the way south, we stopped at the US Marine Corps Museum in Quantico, VA (very impressive)!
Finally, we spent a little more than a week in Richmond where we celebrated Theresa's Mom's (Margaret) 93rd birthday! A little golf, some great times, good food, great company. Got to see Theresa's sisters Mary and Dottie as well and some of the nieces and nephews!
Back home now. On Thursday we head to Oldenburg to visit Theresa's two aunts in the convent.
An afternoon of golf plus dinner at Brau Haus with my sister Carol and husband Denny.
BTW: I post photos on my FaceBook page and on www.tripadviser.com for many of the places we visit.
