Illinois River Bridge

Illinois River Bridge

This bridge spans the Illinois River in Morris, IL, just south of the I&M Canal. I love running and bicycle rides along the canal towpath, and this bridge has become a favorite place to explore.

I think I’m getting a signal…

Can you hear me now?

St. Anne’s Church, Jerusalem

This ancient church was completed in 1138. World renowned for its acoustics, I not only had the opportunity to visit this beautiful sacred space, but was privileged to sing there as well. This magnificent structure is rich with history and beauty and was a highlight of my trip to Israel. The image below was taken as we entered the church grounds.
