We looked like the Clampets (Beverly Hill Billies) on the road to Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The van was FULL of people and stuff. Steve did a great job driving us down in his Dad's van. THANK YOU Mr. Hal Miller for taking the time to drive with to Charlotte and for sticking around while we went through security to make sure we got all of our stings through.
Our flight to Houston was pretty smooth and uneventful. Robette got a crick in her neck looking out the window, good thing that it was cloudy over half the way here.
We drove down to Galveston Island before we went to the church that will be our base camp. There is still evidence of Hurricane damage. (Pictures will follow.) I was amazed by the truck parked out on the damaged pier. We got closer and it wasn't parked at all. The pictures will explain.
We grabbed a "light" dinner at a local place named "Kelly's". Again, pictures will follow. Then we headed to base camp. Diane the camp director met us at the door, we had orientation part one then a tour of the church. Facilities are nice and the people are great. Marty will be our on-site leader and Mark, another volunteer, will be joining us at the work-site. Our work will include framing, flooring, dry wall, painting and other things. We will meet our family today.
Gotta go for now. Breakfast is in 8 minutes.
Thank you to all our prayer warriors, friends, family and supporters.
We are excited about what God is going to do and look forward to sharing fun stories of God with you.
Much love and thankfulness,
Team Texas
