Hey guys! I'm heading out to the airport, in about 30 minutes actually, to fly down to Honduras to help build homes for the orphans. I'll be without Internet access until the beginning of July, so hopefully I'll survive! hahahaha

So have fun, but not too much fun without me ;)

See you guys soon

-Jiimmi

That's a great thing to do Jimmy! Wish i could go with you!

hard to believe there is no "internets' there! you and others talk about going places with no internet-- but i had a friend who was a medical missionay in Belieze... took two days of riding a donkey through the mountains to get to her village... but she had internet! (she carried a laptop and hit a satillite-- and they carried eveyone's laptops to town and recharged when they went for supplies)

Any way.. have a great trip.... and i know you'll feel good, doing something to help others...

Due to the fact that I'm running on a School Grant, I don't have all that fancy stuff like satellites to help me out. Although I do use computers down there, none of them are good enough as the ones in the States.

But here's a look at all those cheerful faces I'm helping for those that are interested:
