Well, day three is off and running. The representatives from air pouch have arrived and the head is being filled. Volunteers, Christine Bolles and Keith Hoop report that the arm filling problem has been resolved and the team is in good spirits.

Hopefully there will be no snags in the process today. Once again the team is blessed with clear blue skies and sunshine in this midwest city that is known for it's unpredictable weather.

A huge celebration is planned for the opening ceremonies, but mostly to celebrate Jonathan Haner's 40th birthday. Sponsers are collecting funds and the team is selling t-shirts with Le Grande Bebe on them to fund a ticket for Jonathan's love, Teresa Holmberg to travel to the states and celebrate this victory with him. Whether they win or lose has yet to be seen but the mere fact that the baby is almost complete is a victory in it's own right.
