Echo of Joy

Out and about

Thursday, July 14, 2011

I mentioned my trip to Kansas City, and shared some pictures of our family gathering. Here's a bit of our exploits around town.


The sports complex, Arrowhead Stadium (home of the Chiefs football team) and Kauffman Stadium (home of the Royals baseball team).




The Liberty Memorial and National World War I Museum. We drove by without stopping. I hope to visit sometime.




And the beautiful architecture of Union Station.







I also attended another retreat of the Society of the Holy Trinity. It's always a delight to pray together. As a bonus, this was the first time I had been to the Christ the King Retreat House in Buffalo, Minnesota, when it wasn't snowy and frozen.


Beautiful grounds.




Statue of Moses.




Baby barn swallows. See Psalm 84:3.




Stunning sunset.
