Ashley and I guided the big bus around to the missions. He has to know the route by himself because tomorrow we have three more big buses!

After checking on the teams, I went to Azalea to get the kids to help me with the labels. The summer will be over before we know it.

It was great to be there with them. Made me really miss hanging out with my kids.

After we completed the labels, I got doughnuts for the kids. They always love that!

Then the most complicated part of my day began. I had eight missions and had to figure out the route for a 55 foot bus. Difficult to take right turns and VERY difficult to turn around. So I went up a lot of streets looking for wide open areas that the bus could use. Really aren’t many of those, so decided to have him go back on 85. I’m having him make a couple of loops rather than retrace steps.

Finally got home around 9:30pm. Long day, Jack!

Admin duties now.

Got a lot of editing to do but too tired to do it.

Perhaps the biggest single team of the Summer starts tomorrow. About 160 people made up of families from Hattiesburg. Looking forward to that.
