I have been in a Towanda state of mind all week - things just haven't been going exactly as I had planned. Customer service is definitely not in vogue any longer. I have run into roadblocks, rude people, delays, "NO", and lots of waiting during that "window of time" for estimators, installers, etc. So this evening, with some time on my hands I start going through David's pictures from Uganda. Upload - download, photoshop...and then...I see this picture. I keep going back to it. I zoom in on it. I crop it and zoom again. I close my eyes and I still see this tiny, beautiful little girl standing in line with her cans to get water. Water - a basic human need. She should be in school, or better yet - out playing somewhere. But she is standing in line - barely clothed with her cans in her hand. I keep going through pictures and find her again. This time - h

Thankful

Awesome! We do take water so much for granted. I am so thankful for David, Bill and all the others who are involved with Water Missions. What an outstanding program.
Am I now considered a YA YA?
Great pictures and even better thoughts. Would love to talk to David about his trip. Would be great material for future presetations for WMI Speaker's Bureau.
