Dear Friends,

Wednesday’s come around again, and here it is:

So, I’m feeling a bit like a hummingbird these days.
Backwards, forwards, going in circles; and now I’ve added flitting about, swooping in, and not really catching my own reflection as I fly by.

On rather short notice (for me) I’m off to Fond-Du-Lac, Wisconsin tomorrow morning with a Get In The Car team to aid in flood recovery. At approximately 7 driving hours from my pick-up point, depending on road-breaks, etc., our group of 10 emergency response and long-term recovery volunteers should arrive at our destination by early evening.

From August 6 through August 10, I may or may or may not have access to email. However, my cell phone will be on from 6:00 am - 11:00 pm every day.

Of course, if I am standing ankle deep in Wisconsin water, wearing respirator head gear, goggles, blue mucking boots, and have neoprene gloves duct-taped to the arms of my full-body, protective suit, I may not be able to answer your call right away!

Please leave a voice mail or text message for me or the entire team. Prayers welcome, too.
(517) 442-8899
