Done

We're finally done with the workweek. It really is amazing to think what we did in just four days with a small group of people (don't be fooled, though, in the list below Tasha left out everyone's favorite site assistant, Aaron). I'll be sad to leave the house and the people, but it will be good to be home.

Tonight we'll be getting some sleep before our big trek home, but our last real night in Mississippi (last night) was pretty sweet. No one had any great ideas about what to do so we all just settled for the beach. Rumor was that it was only about a mile away, but it was definitely more than a mile. But it was worth the trek because we got to see a miracle of life. We walked around the beach for awhile and then someone pointed out that a ways further down the beach there was something mooving. Come to find out there were sea turtles hatching and making their way to the gulf. Awesome. If you check out the photo slide show there are probably some sweet pics.

And then to ruin a beautiful moment, Jason and I peed of the pier. But I like to think we didn't ruin a beautiful moment but made a new beautiful moment.

And now, A Soul Service Trip Haiku:

Habitat Gulf Coast
Rooftop danger, forearm pain
Sixteen hours, home 'gain

peace,
mark
