Wow. I ditto what Nancy said. I know that the press have sometimes raved over how hospitable the Gander residents were that day and Newfoundlanders are famous for their hospitality, but I had no idea how organized they'd been. What a great idea to have their young people contribute in such a way, and what a great way for Delta 15 to thank them!
* Life is change.
** Born in New Jersey. (A Jersey Girl, but I don't know "What Exit".) I went to college in Iowa. (NOT in a cornfield, but close.) I was a New Yorker. The proverbial Struggling Actor in Manhattan, and surviving pretty well for 20-something-ish years (I *heart* New York.)
*** Now I live below the Mason-Dixon line. (But I'm born and bred a YANKEE.)
***For awhile, I was an avid-almost-rabid runner, running WITH my camera much of the time. I have been experiencing some "aging ? and other issues", but I still doggedly clod-hoppily-plod my way through events, camera usually in hand. Now I'm even SLOWER than I used to be. *** :-P ***
** I used to help socialize local humane society cats in their foster home, and take photos for the website, but my Haven kitties moved to a farm in Virginia in May 2018. ~meow~
Awaiting my next incarnation, or not....***
I still have a phondness for photography & a recurring Flickr Addiction, so go see my photos!

I was having a little fantasy trip to CA via the Internet, planning CALGARY Marathon, and I happened upon the site.
The stories made me sob out loud.
People helping people - it gave me hope when things were so bleak and frightening.
