Extravagance on the Feast of the Assumption

Today the keeper went to the Cathedral and was quite taken with the celebration of the Assumption. The idea of the feast's scripture readings as extravagant tellings of immeasurable grace and possibility on God's part and the extravagant response of Mary to God was excellent. The kid's choir camp members sang, and it was hot, sunny and festive.  She went back to her former church for an anointing of a dear friend, and of course saw everyone.  But eventually she found her way back to us and let us go out.

Cecil found the catnip garden and after eating several flowers, rolls in it, and then rolls in the gravel and grasses in the side  yard.  Then he eats regular grass.  He is an odd one.  The keeper says that taking him out on  his leash is like walking a horse who wants to graze a lot.  She brought him his own wheat grass plant for indoors.  Now that is extravagant!
