Sup fam,
We
started this morning at about 8:30 waking up to some rocking Bob Marley in room
2. Ate some breakfast made some fantastic sandwiches and were soon on our way
to day 1 of work. We began our work week at Feeding the Gulf Coast, formally
known as the Bay Area Food Bank. They are a non-profit organization whose goal
is to give food and other things to any person in Alabama, Louisiana,
Mississippi, and Florida who need it. The southern folk love to look after the
little people AKA children, and the people at Feeding the Gulf Coast are no
exception, they offer many programs for kids whether in school, on weekends, or
on summer holidays. During our time there we broke into two groups one sorting
foods with due dates (Karalee thought it was funny we called them due dates)
the others in the garden. Inside the
warehouse sorting food was grand ole’ time cracking jokes and tossing tea boxes
at Karalee while she frantically tried to catch all of them and organize them.
The two of us were both inside sorting food, but from the garden was hot, they
pulled weeds, set up fencing, and dug trenches.
After our long tiresome we
thought a good way to kick back and relax for a few would be to head on over to
Orange Beach. The beach was superb. The squeaky sand when you kicked it, and
the football were just some highlights of the afternoon. The main event was the
ocean, all the waves and salt made for fun dunking people and a splashing good
time. To finish off the day we got some Italian ice drove back to camp Christian
and enjoyed a talk from Ransom Cafes one and only Matt Armbuster. All in all
it was a great day and we can’t wait for tomorrow!
Gulf of Mexico! |
