I arrived in Harlingen, TX yesterday afternoon, met up with some teammates and stayed overnight in a hotel in town.  Six of us and our stuff piled into a small minivan shuttle there, and stayed in one room!!  Fun times.  I slept well, and we are all back at the airport meeting the rest of the teams here!  Excitement and activity is ratiating out of the arrivals lobby as we are taking over the place.  The vans leave for Matamoros at 12noon and 2pm today!!  Whoo hoo!!

I will update again when I have a chance.  Thank you all for you prayers and support.
