In the 5th Century, Justinian took the thrown of the Eastern Roman Empire, upon taking the throne he fortified Constantinople with a 14 mile Stone Wall. Today that wall is porous but those stones have been reproduced many times over throughout the world...one science book and one bible at a time.

Was the wall built to keep people in or was it built to keep people out :?:

Oh... that's easy enough. Here I thought it took some sort of unique gift to find the place:

Another Great One graces these pages as Carnac appears. He and Constantine had much in commom as historical figures .

But speaking of historical figures, nice to see Carol Wayne again.

Like a vision she dances across the floor as the radio plays.

May she and Cranac rest in peace as the Catholic powers are resurrected and moving down the road "From Constantinople to St Paul"

Well boys, I am kind of in a Constantinople state of mind today.
Big game tonight for the Raiders of CDH.

Yup, the poor witto teensie weensie opt up Raiders vs the Edina Hornets at Highland.

Most of the fine posters are calling it for the original Cakeaters but I am not so sure.

Ill be there handing out rosaries to the CDH fans, just to be safe.

Both programs are beloved by all, especailly our fine supporters in flannel shirt land.

Another battle as we travel down the road 'From Constantinople to St Paul"

I've seen all the rich hockey people
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a Constantinople state of mind

A good question but the spray will be needed by the Stars as the road branches out into sections when Lent comes.

There will be bumps in the road along the way.

But speaking of bumps, AHA 7 Farmingtom 0 and BSM 6 Cooper 0.

Busy as a bee today,will check in later.

And last nights was a doozy...

I'm curious about the thought process that led to the back up goalie playing against Edina. Might have wrecked him for life...

Another good weekend for those that are making this great trek. This pilgrimage of the spirtual. This journey to the Holy City for an audience with hockey immortality.

CDH held back a stubborn Stillwater squad 3-1.

HM beat Sibley by a lot.

BSM dropped a tough one to Minnetonka in what was reported to be one of the best games of the season so far.

AHA tied a Catholic school from out east, God bless them both.

So the Journey continues.

Dont stop believing. Because YES:It Can Happen.
