Today, my second to last day in Kentucky, saw a lot of running around with last-minute things. Click here for pictures from two of my stops.

Production Troubles
Sorry for missing a day or two again here on the website. Part of it was just the time required for travel: getting to JFK airport from Maryknoll and catching a flight at 0130 Sunday and arriving in Taipei at 0530 Monday, and then another part is a recalcitrant USB port on my netbook computer. Sometimes now it won’t let me attach the external hard drive on which I have all my photos and other files.
Trip to USA–13 October
Today was the main event of the Dittmeier cousins reunion, an informal dinner together in the evening. Click here to see some pictures from the dinner.
Trip to USA–12 October
Today the morning and afternoon were spent on office work and some mundane tasks and in the evening I ate dinner with the first of the cousins arriving from out of town for our reunion tomorrow. Click here for a few pictures.
Trip to USA–11 October
This first full day in Kentucky was spent running around doing all the little things that need to be done when you’re only in the city for a few days a year, if that much. Click here to see the stops on today’s itinerary.
Trip to USA–10 October
I didn’t have to hurry this morning but was able to eat breakfast at Maryknoll before heading to the airport for the trip to Louisville, Kentucky where I would see my family. Click here for pictures from the day.
Trip to the USA–9 October
Today I started a three-week trip to the US and Taiwan for meetings with Maryknoll. Click here to see some pictures from the beginning of the journey.
Wow!….sorry!
Wow, this is the longest I have ever gone without being able to post something here on the website. Sorry! It’s been a combination of travel schedules, busy times when I needed to be at places here in Kentucky, and attention to work that has followed me from Cambodia that has kept me offline. I hope tomorrow, Saturday (it’s 10:41 PM Friday night here in Kentucky as I write) will allow me to start posting about this trip.
The Last Supper
Every Wednesday the Cambodia Mission Team of Maryknoll has a meeting and a liturgy and then a meal together. This week was Fr. Bob Wynne’s last time to be with us before he departs for a new assignment in the United States so today’s gathering was special as members of the CMT expressed their appreciation for his presence and his work and wished him well in his new work.
Bob was the presider at the liturgy we celebrated today.
At the end Sr. Ann Sherman (standing) formally thanked Bob and presented him with some small gifts (easy to carry in his suitcase!) to remind him of his time in Cambodia.
