Home. !9 hours after waking up this morning we are back in Salt Lake City. After spending a fantastic week at UCI the team has said goodbye to new friends and all of Daniel’s new pets.

Day 8 of Dougie Road Trip. Today we made snowmen and snow angels in the rocks. As the trip comes to an end, everyone with their high and mighty iPhones have been airdropping fond memories to each other.

Today we spent the morning helping put in a cement floor. A couple Haitians were hired to run the project and we helped where we could. We transported some buckets of fill dirt to put on the floor, and we hauled
Greetings From Haiti!
This post by Melissa & Kate We woke up this morning to roosters crowing and the constant drone of motorcycles bringing children to school. Over 1300 children attend the school here at UCI (grades K3-9th), so you can imagine the steady stream pouring onto campus. It’s amazing to see how many people can fit on a motorcycle…the record today was seven! After a hearty breakfast, we headed off to the market while Bill started
