Melrose MN - Dawit does Melrose and the Saints












Dawit and I had to make the trip back to Melrose to clean out the car from the pre-Christmas road incident.
After we got the dirty work done I told him it was my first visit to Melrose. So we had to go and see what there was to see. We found the turkey plant and the Catholic Church - next door.
So we started at St Mary's in Melrose and did the Saints to get ourselves back to Saint Paul - Saint John, Saint Joseph, Saint Bens, Saint Cloud and back to Saint Paul.
We even found the Ethiopian study center of historical documents housed at Saint Johns as we took a look at the current Bible pages on display. Who knew we knew so much about Ethiopia here in the midwest USA!
Carly must have started to spin, or else it was the holy spirit, with me seeing that many saints in one day. So she called to check on us in mid-tour.
I think Dawit was glad that the sun was going down and I couldn't see anymore steeples along the way..........or find anymore Saints!
