Mississippi: Tuesday and Wednesday

Since  ALL Y'ALL have been sittin' up where it's chilly, we thought we'd tell y'all 'bout our last couple'a days here down south. On Tuesday, it was cloudy, which wasn't a bad thang' cause on Monday, we all became a big bunch'a 'red necks' (sunburnt, youch!). But today, we had everythang from pourin' rain to a little bit of sunshine. Although it slowed down our progress, we still ended up with blisters on our hands from all the hammerin'.
On Tuesday we headed'er down to Gulfport after our day of work for power-shoppin' at the outlet malls. We got to enjoy many'a lightin' flash, and got to see the roarin' waves of the sea the whole way thar. When we got to the malls, we all ran through the rain and were delighted to see the many stores for everyone, such as NIKE and Bath & Body Works.

Wednesday was a full day of work, but was cut (haha) a little short  for two reasons. Most of us went for a visit to Pass Christian for lunch with Billy Morgan, but Karalee and Luke DE headed'er to the ER where he got 5 stitches on his pinky joint. They missed lunch, but we enjoyed a good ol' home cooked meal, consistin' of spaghetti, salad and freshly baked desserts. For our second dessert, we had story time with Billy, a Hurricane Katrina survivor and MDS homeowner. He had interestin' stories that y'all should'a heard, and a very infectious laugh. Some of us spent our evenin' explorin' Bay Saint Louis and interminglin' with the Saint Stanislaus students, who don't get to see girls very often! And weren't really supposed to talk to us. Shhh!

Y'all better stay tuned for some more updates in the near future!




BYE Y'ALL!!!
