Lonestar Grill

One night we ate dinner at the Lonestar Grill, just down the riverwalk. Accompanying our crew were the Zwoneitzers, Wagners, and the Vawsers. Matt and Andrew Vawser were so kind as to bless us with their banjo and mandolin.

Third Trip to LA, Chalcedon Conference

We returned from our third trip to south eastern Louisianna at 0536 hrs. Friday morning. After unloading the bulk of our important supplies from the vehicle, we crashed for a few hours. I must confess, we didn't really sleep much :). That evening, the Mortons and one Smith (this one) drove up to a Chalcedon church in Cumming, GA, for a conference w/ Doug Phillips, Gary Demar, Mark Rushdoony, and Martin Selbrede. Mr. Phillips was in fine form, as always...
Saturday was also spent at this conference (note: the girls were also in attendance on Saturday). We spoke with Mr. Phillips, and met several families from around the country with whom we hope to maintain contact in the future. :)

Bob Renaud took this photograph for us at the conference.

Second trip

The last few days have been spent cleaning up the mess from our previous expedition into New Orleans, and preparing for the next one. We've finally made contact with Robbie Armstrong, the youth pastor? we met in the CiCi's parking lot in Hammond, LA. He has put us into contact with several churches in Slidell and the surrounding area that need help. At the moment, we are planning to take a load of supplies in to them, leaving Friday night as soon as possible. If we can get Daniel's blue one fixed or borrow another one, we would like to take a dirtbike in to use for reconnaissance. Lots of work to do, and I have several clients to take care of tomorrow. Good night, and God Bless!
Grace and Peace...

Our team with the guys from Operation Save America -- at the end of a day's work well done. Good work, guys!

On our return leg out of NO, we had a little company...

The line at this roadblock was over a mile long, but the Lord had made the Egyptians favorably disposed towards his people (Exodus 12:36), and we skipped the line and the checkpoint with little difficulty.

Due to recent sub-optimal weather conditions in southeastern Louisiana, the consistancy of electrical supply to some areas has been adversely affected...

LA Rest Stop

Our team with the Op. Save America crew at the rest area on I-55 just south of the Mississippi border. It was shut down, having undergone a loss of power and water, and all the vending machines had been burglarized.

High Place Campground, serving as temporary HQ for Operation Save America. We stopped there Sunday morning; they provided a wonderful breakfast, and then we joined their caravan into New Orleans.
