Today's News
David reports that it's "bright and hot with a few clouds, and a possible thundershower later".

Welcome to arriving cooks Barry and Jim J. They are arriving just in time. Today we have a Food Drop. That always results in extra work for the cooks. The good news is that we are not moving until Sunday, so the cooks have plenty of time to store all the new supplies before the trucks are rolling again.

All of these have happened already today:
Thermo King wouldn't start due to a dead battery;
Food Drop completed;
When David and Tom R. were in the freezer organizing, we blew a breaker so it got "very dark" in the freezer.

Very large "KUDOS" to the Natalia High School staff. The school has been very helpful and just great to work with. They adjusted the AC in the sleeping rooms; provided a jumper/charger for the Thermo King; letting us use their walk-in freezer to store our food until the Thermo King is working; every little request or question has been met with a "can do" attitude.

If you're coming to visit the Corps, a reminder that fresh fruit and vegetables are always appreciated.

John drives (still).

Today's donations:
Ron & Gail Poling - 24 cases (24 bottles, each) of Gatorade
