It was good to get home. I took a lot of pictures, but it doesn't justify any of the devastation that went on down there. These people have nothing. It was great to come home and reflect on all the good things that I still have.

Jobs here are scarce. A home would have been a big benefit for us. It would have made a lot of difference.
