We had our lunch and our chat time and then we were on our way to the final leg of our day as we made our way towards Lake Charles, Louisiana for our week long reunion gathering with the great folks who came down with us on our first trip way back in the spring of 2006. We are all here now and have selected another house and family to assists this time around. I will be posting some pictures as we go along but for now I just want to once again offer my heartfelt thanks to my buds from CT who make there way here out of the goodness of their hearts and from their desire to make life a little better for other human beings. You guys are absolutely the best friends and superior people for where you come from and what you offer in the way of hope and caring and love. It is my honor to be your friend and I thank you for accepting our invitation to come here and make a huge difference. Alex, Mike, Dave, Hilton, Megan and Jasper, you are the light of the world!
We will be here for one week and it that week we will collectively; completely remodel, expand and make accessible a new bathroom, Insulate and drywall a master bedroom and repair the drywall throughout the house, install new underlayment and finish floors through out the house, install new wiring and lighting throughout the house, install all new appliances, construct a new front porch and stairs off the front door, buy a communion dress for a 9 year old making her first holy communion and in effect make this house capable of being moved into by a family of four who has been living in a FEMA trailer for two years unable to move into their home sitting on their property. This is a real good thing that my friends have come here to do and it will change the lives of this family forever.
