We're Back - Haggai #2

Well we are back in Maui - and this wonderful couple were at the airport to greet us with leis and hugs and greetings.
They are Valerie and Larry Hundeby from Elbow, Saskatchewan. They completed one year here last June. Larry is the Manager of Facilities and he is responsible for all Facilities staff and all volunteers. He reports directly to Head Office in Atlanta. Valerie is Volunteer Coordinator and Guest Services Manager. They were volunteers a few times, before becoming full time staff.

Our trip here went relatively smoothly, at least compared to last year. We did have a one hour delay in Toronto, but that was because of poor weather in Chicago, where we changed planes. We were only 25 minutes late here in Maui, and on a plane that held over 450, I think we were the first to grab our luggage and get out of the airport.

There are eight volunteers here who we met last year. There are three other couples from Ontario. The current classes of participants total close to 120, so the place is busy. They all graduate and leave the end of next week, so the ladies will be busy deep cleaning the rooms in preparation for the next sessions.

Today is an adjustment day and I think it is time to adjust by the pool. We are planning on two posts per week while we are here. I have beeb having trouble with picture downloading, so will need to get that under control.
