Friday,February 19,2010-Transition Day



We loaded up and got on the road by 6a. The morning air was cool and felt good once we were going.
Driving is always a challenge, we saw three wrecks involving big trucks and a few near mishaps where Chicken Buses were the issue. I sit and watch in total amazement as the Three Ring Circus unveils act after act for the entire 6 hour journey back.


We spent a few hours in Antigua before heading back to Ely and Rosa's casa. We were all relieved to see Ely feeling and looking better.

The transition day helps with the river of emotions that floods your soul after serving in a poor village for a week.

The team is weary so after supper we called it a night. The ladies stayed at the house and the guys in the church. After many stories and laughs we turned out the lights.
The sound of the city traffic helps buffer the chainsaw running in the bed next to me. It's time to dig out the ear plugs and turn in.
We've had a great week and we know this has happened partly because of your prayers. Once again---Thank You!
Should make it home by midnight tomorrow.
