St. Clare and the Nasher Sculpture Center Event

Wednesday, July 11, 2007 at 11:49PM

The corporate people at Travel Connoisseur were really worried about the Dallas weather last night, as well they should have been -- the thunderstorms were closing in just as our first Travel Connoisseur event was about to unfold.

400+ people were invited and had RSVPed -- and the Nasher Sculpture Center was being readied with all kind of drinks, hors'd'oeuvres, and great raffle prizes. I asked the people I worked with who the patron saint of weather was... I thought, in my semi- lapsed Episcopalian, semi-Catholic way, it couldn't hurt!!

So, five minutes before I walked downstairs to the event, I said a prayer to St. Clare, the patron saint of good weather. Miracle of miracles, the storm went East, and although it was muggy and damp, it did not rain, which the corporate people thought was amazing -- but I knew it was because of the intervention of the little known and really little appreciated St. Clare of Assisi :) No relation to St, Francis. Except she heard him preach and she was converted.

The event was exceptional, due in part to the venue -- the Nasher Sculpture Center where some of the great works by Joan Miro, Alberto Giacometti and other contemporary sculptors are housed.

Many people who were interested in learning more about the Private Residence Club and Destination Club industry were there, and I spent a LOT of time discussing the advantages with interested Texans. It was a great party in a greater place. There will be more -- let us hope that St. Clare will always be with us!
