Pics & Hap’nins: St George, Houston March 4, 2006

Here in Texas, the annual Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is a big, B I G, deal — as is barbecued Brisket. So, before the Great Fast, what’s an Orthodox parish to do? Here’s a few scenes from our annual Country Western Dance (held a few weeks ago) …

Remember the Blues Brothers? Meet the Black Brothers.
The wife tells me, “Next time you get a gig, get a bigger hat!”

I will mention no names, but suffice it to say that a longtime member of the Antiochian Archdiocese Board of Trustees can sure do the MacarEna!

Line dancing and Future Cowgirls of America.

“What? You lookin’ at me?”

Did you know that the MacarEna is a looooong song?

Folks enjoying the delicious Texas BBQ.

“He-e-eY! MacarEna!”

“HOWDY …

… PARDNER!”
We interrupt this Country Western report to report … these old geezers (members of the Parish Council) defeated these wonderfully energetic Teen SOYO members in a game of full-court basketball last Sunday at Annunciation Cathedral’s gym. Yours truly, in honour of my aging knees, declined the honour of playing. (I mean, somebody’s got to take the pictures.)


Meanwhile … back at the “ranch” … what are these folks so happy about?

“He-e-eY! MacarEna!”

May God bless you all with a bright and profitable Lent.
