A few more pictures from the Nashville Dominicans

(Most of my pictures from the retreat are linked here.)

Some of us retreatants played basketball with some of the sisters, and then snapped a picture which settles once and for all the age-old question, "Can Rachel look intimidating if she tries?" The answer is no. But by pointing my right elbow at the lens I can make it look oddly enlarged.



I love the light in this one. We were touring one of the sisters' high school campuses.

I was intimidated!

Did they tell you to bring sport shoes?

Rachel said...

Thank you! Yeah, they did tell us to bring sport shoes, which sets them apart from other congregations. :)

who won? and yes, I think that's the most serious I've ever seen you.

Rachel said...

I don't know if they were keeping score. But do I look like I could lose? :)

Tell the young lady with the "peace be with you t shirt" to put on her game face!!! No smiling young lady!

On the other hand, the girl in the black t-shirt puts the rest of us to shame! And I love the pose of the sister front and center.
