Ok Alabama was an amazing trip but at the same time it just makes you ache to go back and keep helping. Myself, Jacob Brooks, Ashley Tucker and Allyson Field got to help Charlie (a man who had been living in a hotel room with his family for 5 months) move back into his house and helped him clean up and remove the debris pile off his front lawn. It felt great to see a happy ending on our first day there but the reality is most of the other people we helped still have a long ways to go to get back to any kind of normalcy. We left Heidi Branscombe behind (on purpose) (sniff sniff) She's going to be working with kids and anything else COI (Christian Outreach International) tells her to do. Lot's of new games, a relationship for me that went sour, 4 Sheetz stops, and time spent with the other 41 people in our group...Priceless. My two favourite signs we saw on the trip were "We Crack Pecans" and "Men at Work When Flashing" . Soooooo many stories I could tell. About 30 of our group had a dance in an IHOP parking lot (the parking lot was full). The guys once again destroying the girls at basketball, Kelly Clarkson dances at gas stations, and me buying a sheetz hat off the head of a sheetz employee. That's all for now and now on to the pool
