Good morning breakfast clubbers,

All is well. The ship of which we spoke has off loaded some cargo as of last night.

Mini-Chaos happened as the truck was unloaded here at Espwa. Lots of boys to help and even they carted off some stuff while unloading. Cases of bottled water, peanut butter disappeared into the crowd. I think they like the bottles more than the water . They use them to make toy cars and such.
The goods were put in the church/dining area/storage spot.This morning they went back to the dock area(even though there is no dock in Cayes for more stuff. They will unload the 20 ft. trailers and bring here. A good picture of this is at Fr. Marc's blog. See

pwojeespwa.blogspot.com for current photos as my MAC is not interested in showing me how to do this simple task.

Espwa will probably end up getting about 1/3 of the goods donated here from U.S.
The rest goes to local gov't and federal gov't.

About 6 architects arrived 2 nights ago. They will be involved with building a home for the ladies(girls) here at Espwa.

They (Fr. Marc) are doing this so they don't have to split up brothers & sisters, I think. Could be good , could be bad (we'll see how this turns out).

Quiet clinic this am. Usually most Saturdays just has a nurse here-no docs.

I have met some good kids this trip and reconnected with some I have known for past 5 years ( some are all growed up) but they still come up and give me a big hug when we see each other.
I know , sounds kind of schmarmy, but it's good stuff -really.

Trying for a beach run tomorrow if the ships unloading is finished today....

See you in the funnies....love....nase
