Departure Day minus one.

The Catechetical Conference starts at 8AM with Registration from 7-8AM. That means tablers like us need to be there before 8AM. This feels like work! I feel like I'm getting up to rush to the airport. It's dark out. How quickly we forget what it's like to have one's life regimented into motion before one's slept enough.

It'll be good to tell folks about Maryknoll today - and to thoroughly read their materials when we're waiting.

This is the first day minus one of the Pilgrimage. This is the Portland Day.
