Yesterday began the emotional process of understanding the real tragedies of hurricane Katina. The pictures and houeses aren't enough, it's the stories that help you to realize what really happened. Yesterday we began the task of painting a front and back porch of a trailer. However this wasn't just a trailer it was a home that symbolized strength and an individual uniqueness that the lady had set up. The women we painted for was elderly, but her lively spirit showed a much younger age. We were just about only a half hour left to go of painting when there was a huge crack of thunder and then lightening. Then we had to immediatly evacuate the house to a safe pace, because the storm was surely not to blow over with minutes. We ventured back to camp and spent the rest of hour night just relaxing. I have to admitt I never realized how much effort it takes to just paint a porch. Well I am up for another day of painting to finish her porch!!!! So long for now.....
