@unvirtuousabbey.bsky.social I thought the abbot & monks might enjoy the image on this postcard sent to me many years ago. Source: The American Postcard Co. Inc., NYC, © 1996; photo © 1996 Get Bent Graphics, NYC
A humorously irreverent postcard showing a painted wooden icon or figure of Jesus with his arms outstretched as they were on the cross. He is positioned in front of fishing boats, one of which is named "Fisher of Men." The caption at the top reads, "Jesus Describes the One That Got Away."

An image of three scary nuns in prayer (viewed from below), with a fiery and foreboding background; and a set of penguin print bedsheets in the foreground. Caption: "The nuns prayed for deliverance after learning they could no longer afford their favorite bedsheets manufactured on the Heard and McDonald Islands."

And here's a cabinet card photo of Minerva E. GEORGE and her husband Gurdon W. WATSON. This portrait likely was made in Windham county, Connecticut, when they married in 1886.

Hi! I'm Nun Sequitur.

I'm also the Queenealogist -- keeper of a fictional castle* filled with my family history. Full disclosure: I am not descended from royalty. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm glad to be here at Bluesky.

Welcome to the Queenealogist's castle!
