After our first night in our new home sweet home the RV we all walked to the Rec center to take showers and get ready for the day. The rec center has been nice enough to give us access to their facilities for showers and even to work out, so when all come back super buff you’ll know why! The day started off a little slow once we got set up and ready to help no one showed up. We took the opportunity to run our errands and get the RV stocked up for the next few days and grabbed some yummy lunch from Chili’s. Also our trip allowed Zeninjor to get some great footage of Cobi driving the RV.

With the help of Barry (from AT&T) and his connections in the community and Cobi’s ideas we were able to devise a back-up plan to better serve the community with our services. Since the word didn’t get out about our set-up at the rec center we will be moving to the neighborhood center in La Porte tomorrow so that we can get the resources to more people. We stayed in the classroom for the rest of the afternoon/evening preparing signs and flyers to spread the word about our locations for the next few days. Catherine made us Ground Team Ike t-shirts:
Afterward we chilled in the RV with the much coveted generator (we can only use it until midnight so we cherish the time because it gets hot) and Zeninjor and Catherine cooked some vegetable stew for dinner as we watched the Vice Presidential debate.
It was a long day but we made it through.
