Eucharistic Procession held through downtown Derby

The parishes of St. Mary and St. Jude churches invited the community to participate Sunday in the Eucharistic Procession of Corpus Christi in downtown Derby. Pictured above is the group heading onto the Derby Green. 

The faithful left from St. Mary Church and stopped at St. Mary-St. Michael School, Hallock’s Landing, City Hall, Elks Club, and the Green, before returning to the steps of St. Mary Church for benediction. 

Children lead the Procession from the Green. 

Enjoying breakfast 'berry' much

I happened to see some feathered friends in the road this morning enjoying berries that fell off the tree in our yard.
I call these photos "Mulberries for breakfast."

Sharing a special photo on Father's Day

Giving a big shout out today to my cousin, Dennis, for sending me a group photo yesterday of the McDonald family taken on Christmas in 1950. 
I cropped the photo to get a good shot of my father, Donald, who died in 1976. 
He was a wonderful dad, even if he didn't smile too much for the camera.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads

Wishing a wonderful day to all the dads, especially my husband, Ralph, father of two. 😊 

We both miss our own long-departed fathers and grandfathers, and think of them often, and how they would feel about society in 2017.
