Ran into Bennie in the commisary. He says he has stomach cancer. Wanted to know if he could check out Sunday and go to church. I said it was up to his doctor. I told him I'd come see him Sunday and visit him. Was going to bring him communion. Went to see him today. He's gone.

Circle

Circle your pigeons.

Circle your wagons. This was standard procedure for the sake of protection as the pioneers headed west.

The flock of birds on top of the old tower on Southmore circles the top of the building early at dawn and late in the evening before dusk. What does this mean. Is it a signal. They fly tirelessly over and over.

Birds roost for the night. Maybe it's like a dog who circles his spot then lays down for the night.

"In peace, I lie down and sleep. For You, O L-RD, cause me to dwell in safety." Psalms 4.9
