Another Day at the Cajundome

Transmitted by telephone 9/4 at 1pm

Another day at the Cajundome in Lafayette, Louisiana. Last night we spent the night at a local church. You have to be creative in situations like this so I took my cot into a big closet and got a great nights sleep in my private suite!

The numbers keep changing, but we are sheltering about 5,000 people here. There are three major meals a day with two food lines, one across the Dome and the other at the convention center. I got a real kick as I walked around the facility at mid-morning and saw they had opened all the concession stands to make sure everyone, particularly the young people, had snacks.

The scene here is very organized and people are pretty positive. Last night I was up on one of the top floors and I saw they had a major medical facility and an active pharmacy unit as well so there is a lot of good stuff going on all around.

Not sure where we are going next but this has been a pretty good period in the middle of all this madness.

Hope everyone is well

Steve
