Busy

Well we have been staying very busy here. There is always something that has to be done. The English classes are over until August. Beca is out of school for two weeks. Thankfully this will give us time to prepare for the teams that will be arriving soon. I did 10 loads of laundry on Monday. That is no exaggeration either. I'm sure the team will appreciate clean sheets and blankets though.

I have learned a couple of things so far. I can get breakfast right across the street for less than $2.00. It's huge too I couldn't even eat it all and it was very good. The next thing I learned is that when Russ yells for me to come and help; I need to put on tennis shoes instead of flip flops. I've pushed their car from the grocery store. Then helped push the van out of a hole yesterday. I'm a little sore today. For some reason the van was much harder to push than their little car.

Well we will be going to Price Mart today to buy food, and supplies for the team. Jennifer said that it would be quite an experience. I'll have to let you know. I wonder if they would let me take my camera in. HMMM........

Made it!

I had a great send off from Augusta. Thanks everyone! The flight was good. I got out of the airport about 2:30 and Russ and Jennifer took me to lunch. I have unpacked and we've talked about the next couple of weeks. It looks like there's lots of work to do. I can't wait to get started. Jennifer said there are 7 baby baskets to be delivered. That will be lots of fun.
