Day Two

We began early again today, to get a jump on the heat. We finished up the field that we were working on yesterday, then moved into a nearby neighborhood to start the clean up there. There were two elderly couples who needed help cleaning debris out of their yards.

We then went to the site where the Smithville medical clinic used to be. We spent time clearing that site of broken glass, and paper patient charts. We found one medical chart for a patient, buried in the dirt, jammed up under a tree stump, in the roots. We dug it up and it was completely intact.

Volunteers were being fed at the community center in Smithville, so we stopped by and picked up a box of bagged lunches to take back to the church, to enjoy in the air conditioned building.

Our team spent the remainder of the afternoon cleaning and organizing at the church where they've been staying.

After a dinner, that was once again provided by the church, the team went out to the theatre in Amory, to enjoy a movie.
