Day 5: Mission to Mississippi
We're Home!
It did take a while - part of the reason I didn't really write this post last night. Our flight from Atlanta to Dulles was delayed by an hour and fifteen minutes. Then, when we got to Dulles, there wasn't a spot for our plane. Then the fuel truck was in the way of the "mobile lounge". It was all smooth from there, though.
Day 5 was really just a traveling day, so not too much interesting really happened. We got a late start (at least I did, others were up reasonably early) and enjoyed some doughnuts that Bob bought for the group. Lisa (and some others?) visited some jobsites with James and Danny caught James up on the progress we made on the Ladner's roof. We cleaned up and then each car decided how to get from Waveland to Gulfport and where to eat breakfast. Many of us ended up at a few of the dozens of Waffle Houses that exist between those two locations. Christa thought it funny that the breakfast was pretty good except for the waffles - they could have been better.
Security didn't take long at Gulfport, although most of us got "puffed" before we went through the metal detector (that was only my second time being "searched" like that). We hung out together in Atlanta. A game of Pig was played and perhaps a few others.
I was able to get some pictures uploaded (my own), but am hoping for others from group members. Here's our group shot on the last day:



Here is the entire album of my pictures:
