Today I am flying to Austin. In the last few weeks I have suffered lots of stress, pain and a few sleepless nights. The change in Austin where I will be staying with the Brothers of Holy Cross at St Joseph Hall at St. Edward's University will be a good spiritual retreat for me. I will go to prayer, mass and converse with men who are erudite and pleasant. Best of all I will be able to break bread with my former teacher and mentor, Brother Edwin Reggio, C.S.C. Those who may spend some time reading this blog will have to wait. But I guarantee that by next week when I come back, every day that is missing will be taken care of.
The picture above is of Brother Edwin with my two granddaughters when we visited him last July. It is still a big thrill for me to think that the man who taught me to play an alto saxophone when I was 16 would be here leaning against our wondrous Malibu with my two dear granddaughters!
