Dona Nobis Pacem
Finally joined a protest against the war. On Sunday night, Anne gathered with a small group from an interfaith peace coalition affiliated with Christian Peace Witness for Iraq. We sang, prayed, then placed stones along the fence around the White House. The idea is that "even the stones will cry out for justice."
Ack and Anne are long time sweeties who are on a new adventure. Ack, a professor at UW-Madison, is on sabbatical for 9 months. Anne, a folklorist who loves to explore new cultural settings, is along for the fun. --That was our description as of 9/07 when we were just starting our time in DC (see blog "ackandanne"). Now we're back in Madison on the grand adventure of life at home (see blog "ackanne1954").
