tues 23
























































Rain, real rain today. I was soaked most of the day. We made 2 u-haul loads to the mission in p-gould. Turns out the majority went to 2 guys trolling around who said they'd take anything. They started to throw our trash bags into the back of the camaro until I said no really, they were trash. They came back in a truck and filled it up twice. Same family picked up the waterbed the night before. He gave me his phone #s for the next loads. We're thankful for them, but have to wonder what living situation allows you to haul loads and loads with very little regard for quality or usefulness. People are poor here. Unbelievably poor. This has been an eye-opening trip. Sure there's lots to joke about too, but a lot is just sobering.
