Oh, what a beautiful morning; Oh, what a wonderful day!!

Just before 8 o'clock (after that beautiful sunrise), seventeen seniors from the Waxhaw Creek Apartments (where I live) boarded the little JAARS bus en route to Charlotte. Picture number 4 documents that five (or more) of my coworkers (at Vernacular Media) arrived (by car) at approximately the same time. In total, there were more than fifty volunteers from JAARS volunteering at Operation Christmas Child!! Conservatively, there were 200 workers in the receiving area before dividing into smaller groups to see a video and listen to instructions. Then we stood in long lines, single file, before moving to our work station. ~~ Each box went through three or four pair of hands, several steps. ~~ We departed with indelible memories, a T-shirt and a Christmas ornament. ~~ The seniors had lunch at Golden Corral prior to returning to JAARS. ~~ (Left click on a picture to enlarge.)
