Foxy Biloxi

No time so point format post I'm afraid:

* I survived the 20 hour journey through the airports of middle America to get to Biloxi, Mississippi late last night (well it was 11pm USA time but 5am Irish time--big yawn).

* We're staying in a Casino Hotel that's ridiculously comfortable and air-conditioned and it all feels a bit odd so far. The people running the build are super nice and friendly though....there must be a catch....

*The catch is our builds start at 530am every morning this week. Apparently on tomorrow's agenda is putting up the walls and roof of our house (in Pascagoula, MS)....just the walls and roof so.

*It's pretty smokin hot outside but I haven't been out in it for more than 5 minutes yet--apparently it hit 90 F sometime last week....I don't know quite what that means but they seemed to imply that was hot.

* I'll be spending most of the week hanging out with the Northern Ireland team and thus am being exposed to both Northern and Southern accents at the same time...expect me to sound funny when I get home. "Aye, how y'all doin'?"

* Lemonade and cookie social in hotel function room happening shortly.....definitely not in Kansas anymore.

More later in the week.

Hey up

Good to hear you're alive. Sounds like it's gonna be intense week or two.

Remember to wear properly fitted jeans. You don't want to be sporting a builders' crack!
