Hi All:
Following are some photos for you to see of Thursday's events, but I'm having difficulty putting them where they need to be. I wish it was easier to post photos, but without a mouse and the ability to drag the photos in place, it's too time consuming.

I guess I have some catching up to do. I tried to post yesterday in the middle of a thunder storm and lost everything I typed, so here we go again. Yesterday, Brooke, Sandra and I remained at Camp Hope to help out because the Kitchen Nazi (MAN is he a nasty man -could it be because he works 7 days a week from!) needed some extra help.
We started by cleaning up breakfast and then we inventoried all of the leftover sandwiches and made 300 more and then scooped peanut butter and jelly into bins. After that we set out to make the tuna salad. We opened can after can of tuna and then donned our gloves and started mixing. After that, as you can imagine, we smelled rather funky.

It was interesting to walk the halls of this building after we were done lunch duty. Each group of visitors has left a message on the walls. Some are very powerful and gave me goosebumps. I took photos of several of the ones that moved me.
After serving lunch, we had the opportunity for a little down time since the tornado warnings and torrential downpours made for a shorter work day. A few of the girls wanted to get all "purdied up" for the concert so I gave a couple of them a make up treatment.
Shauna looked as though she had undergone Extreme Makeover. When we were done with her, she had make up, nice hair and a great little outfit. Shauna says she's not one to fuss over her appearance, so this was a major transformation from her usual tight bun and no make up. Check her out.
As for the concert, it was located in the arena right beside the dome where all the New Orleans "refuges" were placed during the hurricane. The "nosebleed" seats made it a bit difficult to hear. Pink gave a great show but by the time Justin Timberlake came on, I was on the bored side. Sorry, I'm just not a fan. I actually fell asleep! I know, I know, how can you fall asleep at a concert? As did someone else in my group who is also over 40 and shall remain nameless (see photo above and look on the left hand side. I'll write about today's adventures above this one.
