Oklahoma Trip Pictures

As suggested, I decided to put up some more pictures of the trip so people can get a better feel for my experience. Enjoy...



Mr. Lawless and I right before we left for the airport.


The Lawless Ranch right about dawn.


Looking out at their yard in the morning... wow.




Taking a break from work and chatting with some neighbors.




David and I stacking the hay bales on the truck.



The temporary Clear Creek Oratory right after Vespers.



My room at the monastery.




A picture of my with my monk-cut while relaxing at a picnic in the Lawlesses' yard.




David and I talking to Kateri while we were working on putting up fence posts.



This is outside the livestock auction, some of the Lawlesses and their neighbor.

Matt, Very nice pictures. You really have a talent with the camera. I look forward to seeing you again soon. I also like your Mom's idea of all of you coming out here with the Cunningham family next June as well. Happy 21st birthday. That's a big milestone and a lot of important years since 18. It's amazing how much happens in those critical and exciting years. I remember how a few key events in my life at that time changed everything, and clearly providence was at work where I could not have possibly forseen the direction and journey ahead. Life is beautiful and bigger than we can control or contain. Be well.

God Bless, Mike

Thank you. I am not that good with the camera, I pretty much point and shoot with some minimal technique. =) That would be great if we could all come out next summer (if not sooner).

You are right about this period in life being critical. Sometimes I have to remind myself that I can only take it one day at a time. =)
