Horton Park

I like to think the benediction offered was one often used at St. Paul's United Church of Christ: "Remember that life is short. We do not have much time to gladden the hearts of those who walk this way with us. So, be swift to love and make haste to be kind."

With a temperature near zero, it was one of the brilliant, clear, crisp mornings that are the epitome of deep winter in Minnesota. Sun breaking over the horizon ricocheted off old snow polished by the wind to shiny smoothness. Walking through the park, listening to the hollow creaks and squeaks of snow under my boots, chirping birds were the last thing I expected to hear.
