K, so I've been a little lazy, sorry. I believe I left off after Lake View, so I'll fill in the rest now. Well, that night we decided we were bored and that it would be a good idea to play the "Dance Off the Inches" DVD that one of the other interns brought. Then, the next day, play 3 hours of 4-square with the kids at the community center. I am still sore. We are supposed to use Friday afternoons to do whatever we want for the ministry, so I joined one of the other interns in visiting a woman named Miss Mary who is disabled and cant work, but is the sweetest elderly woman ever. We just sat and talked with her for a while, then went downtown to visit some shops and tell people about our program. That night we didn't have much to do so we drove to Clarksdale to eat at this really cool restaurant called Rust where we got some fancy food and fancier prices. Oi. However, the architecture there was really cool and the whole atmosphere was amazing so I think it was a good experience. Saturday we did more with the Delta Jewels then drove to Memphis to go shopping at the Oak Court Mall which is really cool if you're ever bored in Memphis. It was also around this time I've decided I want to get some lilac perfume. Now you know.

Entertained Amy:
No pictures this time, sorry. I just want to tell you about a deal one of the other interns witnessed. Apparently while I was laying down in the back of the car, Dixie was at the front watching the gas station. At this time a woman walked past a man who asked her, "Hey, want to buy some food stamps?" to which she replied, "How much?" And this deal continued to go down in front of the gas station. I have no idea the outcome, and neither does Dixie, but who knew you could trade food stamps? Or, is it code for something else?
