Rosemary's Blessing:    

May God’s love and mercy encircle you today

With living laughter that renews and saves.

Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week:

May the Lord grant you

       A tolerance for those who don’t agree with you,

       A willingness to forgive,

       A calm and hopeful spirit in the midst of anxieties,

       And a holy anger for injustice in the world.

Alpen Glow, evening, from a large granite boulder above one of the best campsites, after descending from Burrow pass, 11k plus, on the shore of Piutte Creek, night 6 or 7, probably night 6 because on night 7 we had an enormous rain, wind, lightening, and thunder storm about 8-9 P.M. Everybody survived the storm quite well.

Stream crossing on the very last day of the 9 days.   A humbling experience for an old ex-Jesuit who thinks he knows the Matterhorn hike like a bike ride around White Rock Lake.  Since the past two Matterhorn hikes had low water in the creeks, so must be the case this year.  Wrong!  High water was everywhere.  Late & heavy snow.  Thanks, Andy, for loaning me your Keene sandals all 8 or 10 times I needed them.

 Rosemary's Blessing:

 On this feast of the Transfiguration

May we be blessed with fortitude and strength

To change those things which need changing

So that we may be more fully alive people.

May God protect you

From foolish fights and from sleepless nights

From excessive needs and from nasty deeds

From self-made hells and from all bad times.

Lord God who is endlessly patient

with our foolish and annoying frailties,

instill in us patience for our fellow humans. 

Help us to keep our temper cool,
