Back from Katrina ravaged land

I returned Wednesday from Gulfport, Mississippi, where I was part of the church's mission team. We spent five days working, helping homeowners make repairs to their Katrina damaged homes. It was amazing how much work is still needed even after 2 years.



I took knitting with me, but really didn't have much time to work on it. I have started the Charlotte's web shawl, and the Koigu is simply amazing to knit with -- the colors are simply fab-u-lous!



Boo missed me while I was gone (the dd and dh did as well) -- it was really sweet! Here's the pic I got while down there.





Tomorrow is the Mother's day banquet/luncheon at the church -- with fancy table settings and all. Should be nice.
