The Bundles of Hope program is a great way to help folks who are still affected by Katrina and her aftermath. My wife is once again helping out the Communications office of EDOLA (by LOOOOOONG distance) and this is very important to us. If you can help, please check out […]
It wasn’t much, but it has been fun. After this picture we went to the golf course and there was more snow and steeper hills! Viel spaß!
