At the "Overlook Restaurant" on the Ohio River in Indiana |
A cow came to visit us while on a hay ride through the Dominican Sisters' farm in St. Catharine, Kentucky |
Sr. Rosemary Rule brought us to St. Rose Priory, the place where Angela Sansbury and her companions were inspired to begin the first Dominican Congregation of women in the U.S. |
At Maker's Mark, Alexa points to the vat of yeasty Bourbon brew. |
Renee sips the final product at the end of the tour |
We visited Gesthemani and prayed Vespers with the monks |
On the way back to St. Louis, we stopped at Marengo Caves. |
The beauty of the formations in the cave were reflected in natural pools. |
Thank you for this glimpse inside your field trip! I am glad you were able to get inside St. Rose.

Looks like you had a wonderful time. As you immerse yourself in the history of the Dominicans in the US, remember that you are now a part of that history - interesting concept, huh?
ReplyDeleteHope to see you at the Dominicans Sisters Conference Convocation in October
