In Umbris Sancti Petri

So, this is it. My attempt to fill the world in on my life as a seminarian (and hopefully provide some rousing commentary on various aspects of life in general). I decided to set up this blog as a way to keep in touch with all my family and friends back home, here in the US. As of right now, I've got a little less than a week to go before moving to Italy and beginning my theological studies at the Pontifical North American College. I'll write more soon -- when the excitement begins!
