Good Morning from Whitney!
We're starting another day of work this beautiful, hot Tuesday morning. We're all trying to eat breakfast, get our coffee fixes, and put on our moldy, sweaty clothes before we head off for our work sites at, well, we're supposed to be leaving now! That is the story of the trip, but we love it, keeps us on our toes! This has been such a ride. While this morning is a new day and I'm ready to go, by the night I can predict that I will be exhausted, both physically from the work and mentally from everything we are seeing, hearing, and experiencing. It is quite the roller coaster here. Just trying to grasp, and somehow file, everything we are dealing with, it is quite the task. And trying to figure out how to present what we are seeing here, what is going on here, to the our friends, families, and classmates back home is a whole other deal.
We're heading out the door now, and as much as I'd love to stay in this cyber world, I have to pile in a van, get to our work site, suit up, grab a sledgehammer, and have at it. Peace to all, we'll see you when we get home!

We sure appreciate Whitney and Jenna's thoughts. I have been twice to the Gulf Coast and the questions were there in Oct. and back again in Jan. and I still wrestle with all of your thoughts when I am home. You all know that you are making a huge difference. It is the volunteers from churches and universities that have provided hope. this was just as true on our mission trips. Thank you for your commitment.

I am so proud of the work you are all doing. Your compassion, and passion to make a difference are so important.
