As my retreat officially ended on the evening of May 13th, and as there were no other retreatants in the house, Fr.Victor, Fr. Anthony and Brother Joe decided to take a rare break away and go for pizza in Marslaforn. They invited Michele and me to join them and Lili stayed home to hold the fort. Apparently, Brother Lili hasn't eaten at a restaurant in over 40 years...his last experience didn't go so well, so he's never tried it again. It was my first night out since arriving. We were in bed shortly after 23:00 which is about 2 hours later than our usual bed time. It was fun to go out and see a little bit of the night life and have a few laughs with our hosts over a delicious meal. The cactus flower attached bloomed on the 15th and was gone on the 16th...I happened to pass by while the bloom was fully opened and have attached the picture...life is full of coincidence.
