Nielsen DMA #160 (Mel)

It’s late Friday night, I’m dead tired, bruised and a bit sore………and I have never felt better!!!

I have had such an amazing time with and am so proud to be part of Team Biloxi. Everyone worked incredibly hard, but also paid attention to every detail to ensure that Miss Lisa will have a safe and beautiful place to live.

It’s one thing to read about Katrina’s path of destruction in the newspaper, it is another to see it first hand. There is no photography that can accurately depict how bad the damage is, but even with such destruction, the resilience and humor of the people of Biloxi is remarkable. They are so appreciative of the effort that people put forth to help rebuild their city. As Colleen wrote earlier, we have been thanked and blessed and hugged by so many people for merely doing what we should be doing in the first place.

I will remember this experience with pride and with gratitude.

I will also remember that Mole Skin is like the best invention ever (thank you, Diane)

And that 52 is a special number.

And that it is a nightmare to drive nails into a ceiling.

And that the Queen/Ten is probably the lowest hand you should bet on in Three Card Poker.

It has been quite a trip....

Good Night from The Edgewater Inn...
