Tuesday at Gautier May 23

Another warm day but people did a little better today than yesterday. Many of them did not sleep much Sun night so were tired Mon plus they aren't used to this heat and humidity. They were dragging when they got back to the village. Last night they slept but you do when you are tired enough.

We tried a new schedule today. Breakfast was at 6 am, made their lunches so were leaving by 7 am. It was very humid and dewy this morning. Early afternoon some came back to the village to rest, cool off, start dinner. We had an early dinner at 5 pm and by 6 some of them were back on the roof for a couple more hours. It became overcast this afternoon and with a breeze, it becomes pleasant. We have an air conditioner hooked up to one of the big huts with 7 cots so people could rest in there. The small huts aren't air conditioned yet but nights aren't bad yet. But we still have some issues with circuit breakers popping when 2 are going. There isn't much else plugged in but they must take a lot of power.

Talk to you later. Take care. Phyllis

Phyllis, reading about the heat you're enduring depresses me. My worst military service was during various summers in Alabama and Louisiana. I so wish you guys had nice air conditioning for the evenings, especially for the months ahead. We're looking forward to your coming come...be safe, and make time to finish reading the Bible!
Love,
Wes and Joan, Salem 1st Pres
