Lagazuoi--











Greetings....




Today, I made it to the Great War Museum in the Tre Sassi Fort at the Valparola Pass. This site was on the border between Austria & Italy in the First World War. The soldiers dug tunnels in the mountain that went nearly half way down. I took the cable car up and walked down. More than once I thought I was totally crazy and wanted to climb back up but in the tunnels there was no way of knowing which way was shorter after I had begun. I prayed like there is no tomorrow and promised God I would never SIN again, if I got down without falling off the side of the mountain. [God has heard this prayer before....I am sure He is hoping I will keep my promise this time!] Luckily, I had a small flashlight, because the tunnels are in total darkness. Safety codes in the US would have field day!!! You can probably go on-line and see this. It is amazing and an awesome sight. Tomorrow is my last day in this regent. Hopefully, I will make it back some day.....
Know that you are remembered.
Fr. Steve
