Mary:

During Quadrafelia

Reflection: John 15:5

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

Easy to see some pruning going on with the “crape murder” all around us.  This verse reminded me we undergo shaping and some cut back in life as God prunes our story and shapes us to produce the most abundant fruit.

Moleskin:

-The return of the Vortex, great to have him back in the fold as he is looking to round out his workout regime.  Sorry we ran a lot. 

-Gecko.  Once the basketball drills started he transformed into something between Rudy and the guy from Hoosiers.  I heard some mumbling during suicides about a 1954 Holy Spirit state championship run and if he hadn’t hung on the rim and been accessed a technical they would have won.  Never knew. 

-Country Livin was in Rocky mode with the hoodie up and kicking it in for the suicides. 

-Dandelion was working out his him pointer from “The Fall” but launched the ball into high orbit during our free throw shooting.

-Strudel and I chatted about childhood bike riding after which was a good reminder of the days of old.
