Ok, so I am sure some of you have heard, but just incase you haven't, we play a lot of Basketball.

Our first day here we got straight served by the West Seneca Crew - but now, after a month of hard work and training it's time for some pay back.

Every day after working 8 or 9 hours here in the gulf, we have been hitting the courts in preparation for tonight's rematch.

I know all you folks at home wish you could be here to cheer us on to victory - but we will make sure you all get updates on the score!

(hope you enjoyed the silly post - this is what I do when I need a break from the mountain of exit paperwork I am knocking out)

Here are some pictures of the devastation around Bay Saint Louis.

After three days of traveling we have arrived at Bay Saint Louis. I am sitting at a small, personable, coffee shop in the heart of the old part of town. As I write, the whole shop is talking recovery. At every table, at some point in the conversation, talk has turned to houses, property, civic plans, skepticism, and hope.

Our group has a great trip down to the gulf. Our main highlights included Kansas City's food ( great Mediterranean meal!), Memphis blues, and the National Civil Rights Museum.
