When Nick and I returned from the coffee shop we encountered a new group from Alabama. They had brought Southern Comfort in the form of food. A LOT of food. They seemed like a fun group. They are building showers for the Church and also doing some additional construction projects.

Last night Nick and I ran out at about 10:30. We were restless. We ran into a blockade not far from here and spoke with a soldier manning the station with local police. There are still areas they are not allowing access. We thanked the soldier for his service and went off in another direction. We shortly happened upon a soldier guarding another part of the disaster. Funny things was however, this gal was sitting in the back of her Hummer watching a video. As we were talking Nick asks the gal,"are you watching Purple Rain". Sure enough. She is sitting watching purple rain in her Hummer. We cruised around an surveyed some more of the damage. On our way back we stopped to take the picture at the top of the blog.

Saturday we roofed almost double what we did the day prior. Everybody is holding up well and we are obviously getting in the rhythm. We have tomorrow off. Nick is preaching at Orange Grove where we are roofing. We are also looking forward to picking up our new team member at the air port. We will be joined by Denis Mori. We should be finished with Orange Grove on Monday and move on to do a non-church community member that we are excited to help. The home owner is a 72 year old widow on fixed income and no insurance money. We are also looking at two additional roofing jobs for church members.

We are returning to Orange Grove to attend a BBQ hosted for all of the P-DAT volunteers. They have graciously invited us and the Alabama group to join in.
