Last year I started this blog when I helped supervise a group of Duquesne students traveling to New Orleans to work with Habitat For Humanity.
So, when I was preparing to take a group of 19 students from Christopher Newport University (my new employer as of 8/2012) to Bunnell, FL for a Habitat trip this week, I figured that this Blog interface was an appropriate host for a documentation of the journey.
I guess that means that Keepin It Cajun is now the official unofficial home for my traveling expeditions.
Anyway, we went wheels up from Newport News, VA at 4:15 this morning, and arrived in Flagler Beach at 3:30pm. Not bad timing for a trip that Google Maps estimated would take 12 hours without stops.
Not much more to add yet - this is the short and sweet kick-off post. We are crashing in a church for the week, and we get to sleep in on Day 1 tomorrow, with our report time scheduled for 9am at the worksite...we'll be laying sod. And oh yea, Flagler is literally located right on the water - our shelter is one block from the Atlantic...awesome.

Someone is still waiting for someone to send him Randy Millet's "God, You Are, You Are God, You Are God God God" song.
