The Final Act

The past couple days were like the downturn section of a book. It was much more emotional and things were not going as planned. After two days without seeing my homeowner, Booker, our faces were gleaming as we saw him walk up the street. A regular day quickly changed into one of excitement. My site greeted Booker as if we have not seen him in years! He came with a hand full of lottery tickets, a small gift from him to us. It was not much, but to my group it meant a lot. Booker was originally going to go to dinner with us, but because of unfortunate reasons he had to cancel today. A complete let down, but also understandable. After work, yesterday, we came back to our rooms to find that our electricity had gone out. Also, the hot water ran out this morning. Although the Bonners were thoroughly disappointed, we still went out to enjoy some "Nawlins" dinning and work passionately on our projects today.
