Bishop Alexander Sample of the Diocese of Marquette. I tried to find him after Mass to thank him for his recent and continual support of the Traditional Mass but I missed him. And if you didn't know, he's tall.
And this is my first ever photo with His Eminence even before he was out Eminencing around. He's got one of those steel trap memories. He remembers me after I introduce myself every time. He knew my grandpa through the Knights of Columbus. I found out that at one time we had three bishops in our La Crosse council at the same time. And yes, I do look quite beardly. Thank you for noticing. In fact several people (I'm lookin at your Father S.M.) don't even recognize me when I say hi.
The whole set:
Alright, back out to finish up shoveling.

Thanks for posting these. I was supposed to go with ISJ, was supposed to drive out there on Friday and travel with them Sat...but apparently God saw fit to send a massive storm completely contrary to my very specific prayers for good weather!
OH, well. Bless the ice and chill, bless the snow and rain, Blessed be God forever!
BTW just realized I don't have you on my blogroll, a problem that will be quickly remedied.
Thanks!
Thanks for the good post. I wish we could have made to at least one of the Masses that Cardinal Burke was at last week. Oh well. I'll have to wait until next time.
Thanks both for the kind words.
You know what they say, Snow, Snow, Everywhere, so let's all have a drink. ... they = me.
That is a nice picture of you. I thought you would be sporting "Mutton Chops" by now. That is cool that Cardinal Burke remembers you (as well your grandpa) everytime you see each other.
