Solidarity Fish Fry, Week 18: Finding Cupid Among The Cod

Another Friday has come and gone and so has another Solidarity Fish Fry.

This week, as were the others, were filled with solidarity, companionship, story telling, reminiscing with old friends and meeting new ones.

Ah, the power of solidarity!

I wonder what wonders next week, Week 19, will bring, besides bigger crowds for Lent.
