    Greetings to all: Thank you for the great coverage of your daily activities, it makes us feel like we are part of the effort ourselves ( without the heat, long hours and heavy work). I'm wondering who on the team is responsible for getting Craig up for a 5:30 breakfast? You are all real troopers and we are very proud of you.

  2. Reading your news and seeing photos of you working in Thailand feels almost dream-like.
    Much love and "bravo"
