Spent holy week in Ireland, and enjoyed all the old churches.

COT:
Thanks for taking that “field trip” to the Stumbling Stones at Harrison & Little Falls. This small memorial right in our neighborhood serves as reminder and a lesson about enslaved workers who lived in Arlington before us. There’s always more valuable history to learn, and sometimes it’s uncomfortable.
