Out of town through Wednesday...

Every year the Eastern North Dakota Synod holds a three-day retreat/conference for its clergy and other professional leaders at the Fair Hills Resort in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. The event is a mandatory one, but worthwhile, and the expenses are to be covered by the congregations.

I'll be leaving for Fair Hills shortly, and won't have Internet access until I return to Litchville on Wednesday afternoon.

I can be reached in an emergency at my cell phone, or by contacting the resort at the number listed on their page.

For those of you wondering what's happening to Ellie while I'm gone, she's getting a vacation at Animal Acres in Fargo. I wasn't able to find someone to take care of her around town this time, so she'll have her own 5x10 kennel there, complete with treats, food, water, toys, bedding, and playtime in the yard with other dogs. And "Dad" will only be set back $10/night... that's a help. ;)

Time to get moving - registration is from 1:00-3:00, and I've got some driving to do. Back on Wednesday!
