Legenda Fratrum, Part III
In the late 1960's, times were a-changing in the Order. During his official visit to the novitiate, the Provincial* walked into the recreation room one evening and found one of the novices dressed in (gasp!) jeans and a tee shirt.
Provincial: Frater, wouldn't you be more comfortable in your habit?
Novice: I didn't join the Order to be comfortable, Father.

I believe birthday best wishes are in order. Have a holy one.
Touche to that boy ...
Thanks, Bobble.
I don't think said boy has been seen since, Pog. But his legend lives on.
I picked your blog at random from the scrolling list on Blogger, Steffie. We share a love of bicycling, although I have never french-kissed my bike. I don't live anywhere near Mass., so can't ride the trails you mention, but I hope one day to participate in Ride the Rockies.
