What has four i's but can't see?


One of the many morels we found... they are delicious

So I have a ton of stuff to fill you in on, but unfortunately no time to do it. Quick update: I went to a SEMA(State Emergency Management Agency) Conference and learned a ton about the Missouri emergency system. That was the end of April when I did that. The next week I sprayed garlic mustard at Athens state park in northern Missouri. I got to go fishing, morel hunting, and we camped outside. It was wonderful. That weekend I got to see the Wartburg Choir sing in St.Louis and host some of my friends. Also some of my home friends visited me... so good! We did the touristy things.

This is me bucking up a tree in Mississippi... FEMA took the picture!

For a week and a half I have been in Mississippi working with the tornadoes that devastated five of the counties. We are working in Choctaw County and Atalla County. I want to tell you more, but I am stealing Internet from a law firm across from the county courthouse at 10 at night. This town is small and I will get caught very soon. Hope everything is going well... I will fill you all in when I have more time and a less sketchy location.

Thinking of you,
Elsa

P.S. The answer is Mississippi
