Moon reluctant to retreat - sunset in its glory

who knows if the moon's... (VII)
by E. E. Cummings

who knows if the moon's

a balloon,

coming out of a keen city

in the sky--filled with pretty people?

(and if you and i should

get into it,

if they

should take me and take you into their balloon,why then

we'd go up higher with all the pretty people

than houses and steeples and clouds:

go sailing

away and away sailing into a keen

city which nobody's ever visited, where

always

it's Spring)

and everyone's

in love and flowers pick themselves

Hillcrest Assembly of God

Hillcrest Assembly of God Church ALWAYS has something going on; this is a church that truly ministers to the community.

Last weekend there were hundreds of cars parked in the parking lot and on the side of the road - for their annual Rummage Sale. It is BIG one. In the Autumn before school begins, the church gives away hundreds of student backpacks.

Our Methodist Sharers Sunday School Class had the pleasure of enjoying this church's Music Director's piano playing at our Christmas party.

I'm not certain how many churches are in Seguin, but we have some very active churches who give so much to the community. How fortunate we Seguinites are!

My Talented and Creative Friend

I have a very creative and talented friend (well, one could say that I have several creative and talented friends). This particular friend makes the most beautiful cards! Her handmade cards are so distinctive and lovely and I treasure each one I receive from her.

She has a birthday tomorrow (and just seems to get younger and more beautiful each year!)

I won't post the story about her Wednesday night admirer at El Ranchito - but it is a great story entitled "Note on a Napkin from An Admirer."

Guadalupe County Veterans Memorial

The Veterans Memorial on the grounds of the County Courthouse is lovely - and it is so touching to read all of the veterans' names on the brick walk. This memorial is dedicated to Guadalupe County citizens who died in World War I, WWII, the Korean Conflict, and Vietnam.

This site is maintained by American Legion Post 245, Seguin.

O God by whose mercy the faith departed find rest,

look kindly upon your departed veterans

who gave their lives in the service of their country.

Grant that through the passion, death and resurrection of your Son

they may share in the joy of your heavenly kingdom

and rejoice in you with your saints forever.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Downtown Saturday Morning

Except for ChiroJava - early in the morning on a Saturday - everything is just 'waking up' downtown.

Locally Grown

Every Saturday (except on Saturday, February 21st), one can purchase locally grown produce in downtown City Park.












How fortunate we are!
