The Hickory First United Methodist mission to Montero, Bolivia is just about to get underway. There are 29 team members this year. Everyone should be almost packed and ready to go on Friday. Almost is the operative word. I have made bags of candy and gum for the girls at the orphanage and have my passport and shots. The suitcase sits waiting to be packed. Thanks to CVMC for the t-shirts. The mission team will be a sea of pink CVMC t-shirts and they will get much more use when we pack up for home and they stay behind to be put to good use. I will post a picture of work team in our shirts.
The team will all have the opportunity to post to the blog, so look for other, better authors in the days to come.
Next stop, bus, plane, plane, bus and finally pinocho!

I am looking forward to our trip, seeing friends old and new. But the most exciting thing is pink shirts. We will see which men are brave enough to wear them. I have cards packed for marathon games in the airport. I hope everyone gets a good night's sleep tonight because we will have a pitiful night's sleep tomorrow night. But...an adventure is always worth it.
