David & Bekah...thinking about ya'll today!

I spent some time in the yard today. I had to rent a brush cutter and a very cool propane torch that I used on the fence to burn off some vines, etc. As I was thinking about a short blog tonight I came across this great picture of David and Bekah who served at Lagniappe this summer for a week or so in their second or third tour of duty. Why, might you ask would they be part of the blog about the Larroux yard? Well, David and Bekah made the first beachhead clean-up effort at 1129 Old Spanish trail- David is a chainsaw master and Bekah is such a servant. We met them through Jordan 'Jordy' Sikkema and they have been great friends of Lagniappe, the kind that come once and then come back over and over again! Lagniappe is special that way, kindof magnetic. There's something about a place and particularly people that say "It's okay that you're NOT okay!" that turn 'normal' things into profound moments. Normal internships and friendships are transformed into inseparable bonds. Speaking of inseparable: David- I got a couple more trees if you want to come back to the Bay sometime soon! Miss you guys, thanks for being part of the Lagniappe family!
