Snow and ice in the southeast (though not here) wreaked havoc on flights Saturday, and ours from Gulfport to Atlanta was cancelled. Despite the best efforts of our travel agent, there wasn’t a seat to be had, so we settled in for another day. The good news is that no other group is coming in behind us, so we have the use of the Mission House till we leave. I had congratulated myself (prematurely, it turns out) on planning our food consumption so there was virtually nothing left in the fridge or pantry. So…another trip to Winn-Dixie for provisions to get us through.

Happily, seven of us who had made their own plane reservations were able to get home in the wee hours Sunday morning.

I still have a boatload of photos to share, so here are more of our many endeavors during the week, including the celebration of TJ’s 30th birthday on Wednesday.

There was an abundance of joy among us.

Send good thoughts our way as we journey home tonight. It looks like the weather will cooperate…..
