I’ve been on the road and out of the loop for a week or so as I traveled to Kentucky and then got caught up in all the unexpected goings-on with my family. There was a lot of running around both by car and by plane. (The photo above is sunset in Shanghai, China as I changed planes to go to Bangkok after a 15+ hour flight from New York City.) Now I am back in Phnom Penh and can start catching up with the photos and stories of the trip.
Today there was a lot of running around and then work on the website. In the evening Paul and Hope Dittmeier invited us to their home for dinner. Click here.
Today I was able to catch up with some of my relatives, in town for my niece’s wedding. Click here.
Today I traveled from Maryknoll, New York to Louisville, Kentucky to visit my family. Click here.
Today was a full day of meetings for the Board of Directors of the Maryknoll Lay Missioners. Some recurring issues such as retirements plans for older lay missioners surfaced again–that is an on-going concern in the organization–but there were also new issues to address as the organization adjusts to several new personnel in key positions.

Today was the first day of the meetings of the Board of Directors of the Maryknoll Lay Missioners, but the morning was filled up with a doctor’s appointment and a meeting with the Office of Society Personnel. Click here for the full story.

It’s taking me a little bit of time to learn WordPress, the content managing software (as they call it) which I am now using for the landing page of my website. I want to be able to create Pages of lasting content, like in my old website, as opposed to Posts like this one. On Thursday I should have some content ready for the first page that is now listed in the sidebar on the right. Click here to see what it looks like now.
The trip to the US started Monday evening, 10 October, with a motorcycle taxi ride to the airport at supper time. The roads at that time are (1) jammed with traffic and (2) full of food vendors like these stalls selling roasted chickens, ducks, and fish.
It’s 10:48 PM Tuesday night in New York and I just arrived at Maryknoll. Follow this trip here starting tomorrow.
