[Magdalen] Teaching Trump Bible stories

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Ah, reminds me of the first time I encountered a 'fresh' cow pie.... it was 
in the barn of my great uncle who lived in rural PA on the original family 
homestead where my granddad grew up. I was 8. He took me in to show me that 
he was going to milk the one cow... straw all over the floor. I moved out of 
his way and stepped into a freshly covered with straw .....

He thought it was the funniest thing he'd seen in a long time. I was 
mortified! : )

single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
