Today the the larger team was divided into smaller work teams, and we are working on 7 houses this week. We will be painting inside and out, laying floors, installing ceramic tile, taping and mudding dry wall, building stairs on a ramp, gutting a bathroom, installing bathroom and kitchen cabinets, and whatever else comes our way.
Tomorrow the children, Pastor Linda, and I will be going on a swamp tour. It will be my first alligator siting, but some of the group saw one today. It was across the canal, but when it went into the water, our folks jumped back into their cars! Really, really fast!
Everyone is so appreciative of our presence here. It is a humbling and very fulfilling experience!

Hi to Y'all. Sounds like things are under way. Glad to be connected by the blog. I don't know how much you are paying attention to the news but I want to remind you to go outside Wednesday night at about 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. for a sight of a lunar eclipse. Hope the weather is clear so you can see it. I've read that the ancient Greeks figured out that the world was round because of the curved profile during a lunar eclipse. We keep on learning, at least I hope to! Love, Linda K.
Great picture of Cheryl - howzabout a pic of her trying 'gator. I've found that she has a signature face for various out-of-the ordinary foods.
The first few crafish are the most difficult to eat, after a big plate of them, you are gnawing on them like a lion feasting in the Serengeti
Hi everyone!
We are all very proud of your efforts to help the people of Dulac. Looks like Cheryl won the 2008 "Battle of New Orleans" -- Cheryl vs. Crawfish. ...or maybe this is one of the battles where there were no winners! :)
Don't let the gators getcha!
