A Visit to Crazytown.Habitat Charlotte Women Wishing All a Merry Christmas!December 24, 2009
A bunch of us women who used to work together at Habitat for Humanity Charlotte got together for a Christmas lunch at Mary Nell's house. What fun! We got caught up on each other and our families, shared info on those who couldn't be with us, and made plans, too. First off, we're going to be sure and do a lunch at least once a year, AND, all of us who can are going to go with the Habitat Charlotte crew to El Salvador in February 2011. (Fair warning to Ana Maria, Kendal, Patty, etc. in El Salvador!) Several of us went in 2007 and it was a great trip we want to share with more great Habitat Charlotte women. (see Photo Essays tab on this site for pictures from that trip)

During the New River Expedition the Concerned Citizens of Giles County made us lunch on the River. These folks are incredible. They are fighting a fly ash dump on the River and are absolutely dedicated and focused. Read about their efforts by clicking on the link above.
