Hello everyone,

I would like you all to know that today we had an awesome day of rest!!  Since we have only been here for one day, it doesn’t really seem as though we’ve earned a day of rest.   However, it was a very fun day that we got to spend with the Russell’s.

To start off our day we went to have an amazing breakfast of bacon, scrambled eggs, gravy, and the most amazing biscuits that I have ever had, courtesy of the Russell family!  After breakfast we got to socialize, and play with Beckett.  We decided that it would be good to spend some time with the Russell’s at the beach, so we told our driver, Oscar, to take us to the beach.

Just as we left for the beach, it started pouring down rain!  The dirt road became very treacherous while we were going down it in a huge fan.  Several times, I knew we were going to have to get out and start pushing in the mud, and the rain.  About 10% of the way down the road, we decided that it would be better to turn around and go do something else, rather than to risk getting stuck for the entire day.  So, we turned around, and made it safely back to the brick highway.  We found another beach to go to.  We found another beach, and had a great day with great food, and great friends.  I really hope that the we were able to bless the Russell’s with the time we spent with them. That’s all from Matt Hunt.
