    Very good!

    She was in Newport News, VA but they built a new place close and moved.

    Sister,

    From the respect, courtesy, and amiability that have characterized all your postings so far I think that you have very little to worry about from the Moderators. By the by, nice to put a face to the posts.

    There's got to be a very good story in this...

    Cheers

    Sister, what fun your pictures are.

    I must admit that since the majority of my experience with nuns were those in a Carmelite order it's hard to think of a nun in street clothes, never mind on the computer. You do share the humour I so fondly remember them having though.

    Thanks for the pictures. Was the traditional habit comfortable? Or, rather, why the change? Comfort, blending in, etc?
