Well, today we did a lot of work at the food bank, and got a guided tour of the facilities, and loaded and sorted lots more cans and bread. I noticed how many hamburger buns there were, but why I noticed I cannot tell you. It made me feel good to see all of the cans and bread that we had sorted, but at the same time it made me sad that soooooo many people were in need of those cans and bread. I took lots of videos, so i hope that everyone will enjoy them!

Today we went to, in my op
inion, the best museum ever! Does April 19th, 1995 ring a bell? Well if not that was the day the Oklahoma City bombing went on. I never knew what exactly happened in the Oklahoma bombing, but today I learned more than I would have in Social Studies. When we first got to the museum I wasn't too interested in going to a museum but once we walked in and got started it was amazing! We got to see videos, hearings, look at pictures, and see some of the objects that made it through the bombing. What got to me while walking through this museum was that there was a day care right in the Federal Building, and 19 of the children who were dropped off by their parents that morning died. Watching the videos and seeing parents freak out trying to find their kids, but then getting news later on that they were gone was heartbreaking. I learned a lot today and surprisingly too much to share. See you when we get back tomorrow.And last but not least, Jason Cline:
In Oklahoma City to
day we went to dinner at Earl's Rib Palace. It was one of the best meals of my life. A few people got ribs, but I got the chicken strip dinner. Their curly fries were really good and so were the four huge pieces of chicken. I decided to order dessert, too. I ordered "The" Brownie with ice cream on top. "The" Brownie was two brownies that were 6 - 8 square inches big. Once I had eaten a little over half of my chicken strips, I decided to dig into my massive brownie. It was one of the best desserts I have ever had. I was stuffed at the end of that dinner. After dinner we walked around Oklahoma City for awhile, including walking past the Oklahoma City Redhawks (Rangers AAA baseball team) stadium. While we were having fun, Whitney and Nikolee were busy setting up our worship on the river. It was weirdly peaceful near the highway, but a satisfying place to have our worship for the day. During worship, we had our feet washed. It was a very special moment for me, and probably every other fellow churchmate there.Thanks to our three bloggers for staying up and sharing, and sorry I haven't posted photos from today. It's late, and breakfast comes early again tomorrow, so hopefully before we head out to the water park I'll be able to post quite a few. Until then, goodnight!
