EXCITED TO BE GOING BACK UP TODAY TO MINNESOTA....

...TO LEAD THE SPRING 2019 PRIEST RETREAT
Diocese of Crookston 




FAIR HILLS RESORT
June 9 - 13, 2019





Last time I got stuck in a late-in-the-year freak snow storm in the Minneapolis Airport. I didn't know how to handle it, but they did!  They managed to get me to Bemidji on time! This time I am flying into Fargo, North Dakota, just across the border! "It will be easier," they said! I wonder what this is going to mean? Hmmm!  

DIOCESE OF CROOKSTON

The Diocese of Crookston, Minnesota, borders on North Dakota on the west and Canada on the north.

Crookston is a city in the U.S. state of Minnesota. It is the county seat of Polk County. The population was 7,891 at the 2010 census. It is part of the "Grand Forks, ND–MN Metropolitan Statistical Area" or "Greater Grand Forks".

Crookston is the episcopal seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Crookston. Since Crookston is close to the larger city of Grand Forks, North Dakota, many people who live in Crookston commute to jobs in the Grand Forks area.

They really are nice people! I enjoy them so much! 

I will be flying into the Fargo, North Dakota, Airport, just over the border. 

Of course, I will be flying into Fargo on the "official Minnesota airlines" - "Lutheran Airlines!"

I hope they enjoy my teasing or else they will have a week to get even with Kentucky jokes!
