Montgomery, Alabama

So it’s Montgomery Alabama! At least that’s where I have to get to first, and then I will be assigned, probably to a smaller shelter or whatever.

I understand that conditions in Alabama are still rugged, and are exactly as described earlier in this blog. My sense is that there is still a lot of relief needed and I'll let you all know as I can.
I'm a little concerned now that I have started this blog, that when I finally do get into the field that I may not be able to get access to a computer or the internet to keep posting reports - we'll just have to see.

Finally, to give credit where credit is due, the idea for this blog came from the Northern Vermont Chapter of the Red Cross. They have been posting a blog from some of their volunteers down in Louisiana, and I have found their daily experiences a real help in understanding volunteer life, and the conditions down there.
