From "selfie" to "us-ie"

II have limited time and typing on a phone is difficult, but I want to post a series of pictures from our day yesterday to represent the family we've created on this trip to Point Pleasant.  We may have signed up for this journey as individuals, but out connections, conversations, and effort have strengthened this circle.  It's amazing to watch/experience the growth of a community - and I'm so glad to be on this journey for a second year!

We have been working in two different groups this week - Team Astronauts and Team Ice-T.  I have been learning how to Tweet (yes, I'm tech-challenged as a rule) so that I can keep people at home updated on our daily work and experience.  I've been told that Wednesday is typically a day for breakdowns - it's the middle of the week, people are tired, emotions are high - but I wanted to grab the positivity, creativity (and silliness) of the culturally omnipresent "selfie" to show how we have really become "us."  I hereby share our "usies" from 6/17, first taken in the van at the end of the day for Team Astronaut, followed by some group fun with A Future With Hope at the Lakewood Blueclaws game.  Enjoy!
