Today Sara, Josh, Kristie and Amber stripped paint off the doors. We are revitalizing a house that is over a hundred years old. We spent the day stripping paint and cleaning up the yard. We are going to continue to clean up the yard tomorrow.
We all came home to a home-cooked meal of salad, chicken chili, and cornbread muffins. After dinner we all headed for one of the three showers! We are making daily trips to Wal-Mart to pick up some of the little things we forgot to pack. Too exhausted to do anything else, we are heading off to go lay in bed and talk....something we do plenty of around here!
After coming from the fluctuating winter and spring temperatures of Indiana, it is nice to know that it will be warm and hopefully sunny down here most days. A few of us have already gotten a little burnt after just the first day...it’s nice. We are also getting to know a lot of people too. It’s fun to meet new people from all over the country that all share the same interest of coming down here and helping the hurricane victims. I’m looking forward to getting to know more of the volunteers!! 
Everything has been going great here in Mississippi!!! The weather is amazing and the work is tuff but fun!!! This is my third time being here and I still love coming down!!!! Everyone is so nice and just everyone down here is nice!!!
Joshua!!!
