Fall Weather

Hi Guys -

I know that currently many of you are not reading my little posts but I will continue nonetheless. I thought of you yesterday when my boss's daughter was here doing her homework. I helped her and it made me miss all of you and want to help each of you with your homework. I'm sure that no one has late work at this point and most of you probably don't even need any help. Ben and are going to start planning our route this weekend and so hopefully I will have a plan to share. I know we are headed to Washington D.C. and I will do my best to send some info back to you. Other than that the only thing I know is that we will be having Thanksgiving in one of two places...either at my aunt and uncle's in South Carolina or serving dinner to those less fortunate at a soup kitchen. I have learned that if you want to serve at a soup kitchen you have to schedule pretty far in advance so that may not be an option. I would suggest you all try it though...it is very humbling to see how lucky we are to have even if it isn't much!

That's all for now, I've got to get back to work.

Be good (or I will kick your teeth in from a distance).

  1. I just have to say that I hope that the whole kicking us in the teeth thing doesn't work from a distance because I have beautiful teeth(or at least thas what the dentist tells me, so he probably hates me becuse I dont need braces). I think that is great that you are going to serve food to hobos at the soup kitchen. Hope all is well, come visit us!!! we miss you.
