Momma and I went to a city-wide yard sale about a half an hour from where we live today. We hit dozens of sales---I got some cool books, some DVD movies, a lightweight camo jacket, and so on.
Two Catholic parishes were part of the event: my parish (St. Michael's), and All Saints parish; most of the stuff consisted of donations from people in the area. It was at the last one that I found this wonderful little item. Maybe you've seen them before: it's a rosary made in Ireland from Connemara marble. They retail for anywhere from $45.00 up to $75.00; I got this one for a free-will donation of $5.00. (I had no idea what they went for new online. I guess I'll have to throw some extra cash in the collection plate on Sunday. )
Anyway, it looks just like the ones in these pictures. Very sturdy, and it has a nice, heavy feel to it. I am sure to be using it quite a bit in the near future.
