Sandy - New Jersey, April 2013 - 1

During my last entry ... it was in the 20s and snowing ... today its in the 80s and sunny... its ALL good! Well, through the course of the 3-1/2 months I have have been involved with disaster relief, one thing can be said that is certain, and that is, 'nothing is certain'. One constant is unpredictability, it all goes to the old saying: "if you want to make God laugh - tell Him what you are doing tomorrow!" Our scheduled trip for April is still a 'go' but some variables have changed. Without getting into them, the one thing I am taking from all this is to be prepared for everything. Actually, I am finding that part of the appeal of disaster relief is it's unpredictability. It is good to have some foresight and an assemblance of a plan, but you have to be ready to make do with what you got! McGuyver would love disaster relief and probably volunteered a few times. One thing that is a fairly safe bet, this next trip will be warmer, other than that- it's anyone's guess. For more insight into our work goto: http://singonesong.wordpress.com/
