Light On Dark Water

Sunday Night Journal — May 30, 2011

Monday night, actually. I went out of town yesterday, expecting to be back in time to write something more on this. But our plans changed, and I only have time to link to this Memorial Day post from the first year of the Sunday Night Journal.
