Morning Leaf Patrol

Each morning, the seminarians work to keep the grounds free of leaves. This work detail after breakfast is invariably a time to joke and talk while getting something done. By the time the bishop and I  finish breakfast and walk the grounds, they are all hard at work.

Quan always does a superb job. Of course, he takes the largest rake for himself.

Ling also drives. He picked my up at the airport. He seems to wear his smile all the time and never gets tired of being in a good mood.

This is usually how Quyen works, sitting down. He's the one who plays practical jokes on everyone, but he loves when we give it back to him. He is also driving now, so we stay off of the sidewalks.
