Sherry and I left Haiti yesterday and arrived here in Tucson at 1:30 a.m. Today we drove down near the border of Mexico. It is truly unbelievable what is happening.

On the way back, about 40 miles from Tucson on a back road, I looked up and across the whole road it said, “Border of Mexico.” We saw Border Patrol people all across the road. I asked Sherry, “Isn’t our GPS working? We don’t want to enter Mexico… just get back to our hacienda! How did we get this lost?” Come to find out they were there looking for illegals trying to come into Tucson.

Tomorrow, we will drive to Phoenix, then the next day drive and meet our children and grandchildren at the beautiful Grand Canyon for Thanksgiving. Our children and grandchildren have sacrificed sharing us with the children of Haiti and its people for many years.

We miss Haiti with all of its problems, terribly. We miss our Haitian children and the life of “helping someone every day.” We are so excited about building houses now for the earthquake victims who lost everything. Another step of Faith!
