We had to clean our desks today for a big event at our office tomorrow and this weekend.
I have no idea why I took this picture, but it's clean! I think it was a way to avoid doing anything for another 5 minutes...

Kilconquhar has been thought a significant site even before Christianity. In the area around the village there is reported evidence of a Pictish dwelling in Balcarres estate and a lone standing stone can be seen on the brow of the ridge that runs towards Pittenweem. Mention of Saint Conquhar, a Scottish Saint, is found only in the Perth Psalter written towards the end of the 15th century and records his saint’s day as being the 3rd May.

"The Christian finds in human work a small part of the Cross of Christ and accepts it in the same spirit of redemption in which Christ accepted his Cross for us. In work, thanks to the light that penetrates us from the Resurrection of Christ, we always find a glimmer of new life, of the new good, as if it were an announcement of "the new heavens and the new earth" in which man and the world participate precisely through the toil that goes with work. Through toil-and never without it. On the one hand this confirms the indispensability of the Cross in the spirituality of human work; on the other hand the Cross which this toil constitutes reveals a new good springing from work itself, from work understood in depth and in all its aspects and never apart from work" - Pope Bl. John Paul II.
Domestic work is part of the life of a Domincian friar, which we do well to celebrate and recall on today's feast of St Martha.
I bought this Trek 920 mountain bike secondhand from a pawnshop in Maine back in September 2000, when I was unemployed and barely had a dime in the bank. I talked the salesguy down to $140. It has ridden thousands of commuting and pleasure miles since, including Cape Cod's rail trails, Acadia's carriage roads, Block Island, and the White Mountains.
It's still my main bike. I ride it to work about two or three times per week. My other bike is a Brompton.
