the Peace House.

They need water, I'm still working on that issue. Also they still need donations. This has been an incredibly large outlay taking care of everyone, meeting all needs and then some.

The most we all can do at this point in time is send dollars. They need the support to support Camp Casey.

7. Dear God, please. I am so not lucky. Please come take my place.
Love you lots and can you please come back?

If not, I did tell you we have a cousin that has a boat at Cape Cod. We'll see you soon, I'm sure.

14. We'll miss you PVD!
Great photos! The ninth vote is mine.

I'm actually getting my daughter to go with! She had to give a speech highlighting three things about herself for a class and Liberal was at the top of the list! That takes balls in Houston!

Look for more photos Sunday or Monday.

8. Yes, I have water delivered every other week. I fired them this morning.
Edited on Thu Aug-25-05 02:24 PM by anarchy1999
I had no idea. I'm still trying to find someone, and that is why I say the best thing to do is send dollars and volunteers can go wherever and pick up cases. No large supplier seems to be willing to help. I am waiting to hear from Danny ,owner of CenTex in Killeen area (254-690-2671). He is the most helpful. He has supplied the tents, fans and jumps through hoops to help us all.

If anyone as a businessman deserves our thanks, it would be him.

He has gone beyond the call.

16. Hey buddy...did you try calling Costco HQ? They're a great Dem company
and may send cases of water to the Camp. I know their policy may not allow it, but, it's worth a try. One of the higher ups there might just make the donation themself.

20. I don't think so, but I don't know for sure. Sorry and thank you. I need
for some of the rest of you to take over. I apologize, I'm wiped out. Tomorrow I'm supposed to deliver much more and be there again. I just want to stay home. My dearest wants to fire me. Go figure. He wants his wife back, is that selfish? Yeah, but......

33. I was afraid that they would stay apolitical publically on this, since
their political donations are almost entirely to Democrats.

23. I'll have a check in the mail
first thing tomorrow morning, Sherry. We don't have a credit card or I would do I would do it that way. My husband and I really wanted to come down last weekend and were going to try for this weekend (you two emailed each other about us setting up an amateur radio station,) but we really can't afford the trip right now so we will send what we can as a donation.

Please get yourself some rest. From the sound of things down there, there are plenty of people more than willing to pick up and pitch in to do whatever needs to be done.
