We arrived safe and sound with little issues in either the Miami or Port au Prince airports. We loaded into 2 vehicles (Kerwin's mini-van and the hospital's land cruiser) with our bags in the back of a pick up truck (all 34 of them!)Just as in the spring, the bags were covered with a tarp, apparently now sop. We rested some, unpacked, organized, and repacked the bags dividing items into Gressier and Jasmin bags, and started packaging meds. We had a great late lunch of pumpkin soup, mamba (peanut butter) on bread or crackers, and pineapple. Kerwin just arrived with the left over meds from the spring trip, as well as all the new medicine he purchased here for this trip. So, we have our work cut out for us sorting, packaging,and labeling tonight and tomorrow after church. Fred enjoyed the first Prestige for our team.
Steve F. quickly followed. Until tomorrow......
Hi, Mom & Dad!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that everyone has had safe travels so far!
For Terry & Steve: Everything's fine (which is why I'm not calling), but I wanted to let you know that we had a pretty serious tornado pass through Cleveland, MS last night that you might hear about on the news. There were a lot of downed trees, damaged homes, damaged businesses, and injured people, but there aren't any fatalities so far. We didn't have power all last night and today, but we just got it back on within the last hour.
Also: crazy question and let me know if you want to talk about it over the phone... Can I go up to the cabin this weekend? :) Scott said it shouldn't be a problem as long as I call the gate ahead of time.
I'm sending this to both of your emails as well since I'm not sure how to best get in touch with you without bothering a stranger. :)
Love, Sarah
