No Picture ... the camera was in my pocket.
Margie took "the tour" with Andy.  Andy was a Choctaw Indian who is very involved in the church.  He was retired from the armed forces and was alone ... his wife having passed away 3 years ago.  Andy was at the church the entire time we were there. They supplied us with drinks and cookies.  His brother Ted was also there much of the time to help us with some things.

Andy connected a hose (or hosepipe, right Margie?) to their well and hung it from the church bell for us to wash (and cool) off with.
