| Growing up in Texas, I couldn't have imagined any
reason that would have made it acceptable to miss
church and drink peppermint schnapps on Sunday morning. But in my
defense, it snowed 2 ft on Friday and Saturday on the local mountain.
And if you've ever tried to ski down a black in a whiteout, you might
believe that one could be inspired to pray with a bit more feeling that
if you were just sitting in a pew somewhere. |
