An early morning start for Liam and Connor heading to Dublin, OH for golf tournament. However, while on I-74 near Farmer City, they hit a bad pothole and tire immediately went flat. And 2 more cars had same issue and all 3 pulled over. Proud of the boys that they got the tire changed and spare put on by the time Anne arrived to switch cars - this was around 5:30 AM. The real bummer is that Anne just had 4 new tires put on the boys car this past Thursday, Onto Dublin....
The winds really blew all night and still today, but not quite as bad.
We stopped at Coffee Express (coffee) and Mark checked out the new Yellow House Bakery downtown for a cinnamon roll and caramel pecan roll (both 👍👍)
Onto Immaculate Conception for 10:30 Mass and another excellent homily by Father Jonathan. He always tells a story from his past and then incorporates it with what the readings/gospel are about. Today is the feast of the Holy Trinity so he reminisced about growing up (Port Clinton) and a neighbor's dog "Tuffy" who only had 3 legs - and then comparing to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and what we're celebrating today. He always has the congregation smiling, laughing, thinking?
We walked later in the afternoon - so windy and just reached 70 about 4:30. So the golf tournament went to a playoff hole but a favorite of the boys (Viktor Hovland from Norway) won, so they were happy, 86 miles to Port Clinton.
Zoom tonight with 9 siblings - health issues, vacation plans, favorite recipes
The boys arrived at 9:50 all happy and chatty - they thoroughly enjoyed their day in Dublin and saw many celebrity golfers including Jack Nicklaus.
