Saint Matthew

our make shift garage


we are the upstairs apartment

Sierra and I made the move down to Loma Linda on Wednesday the 27 of August. We spent the first three days here homeless, while we looked for a place to rent. We participated in many homeless activities, such as: Bathing under a secretly found spicket, ate a staple of bagels (for every meal), and kept all of our possessions in a cart (actually our car, which trunk would not latch shut). Many of the homes we looked out were wonderful, but a little too pricy. Some were a little disgusting (pee had been left in the toilet to fester in the over 100 degree temps). We finally found a place and we are stoked on it. Our house is three blocks away from campus and only 45 min. away from Newport beach (the waves were at 4-6 feet yesterday). We have orange, lemon, grapefruit, fig, guava, and banana plants right outside of our door. The fresh squeezed orange juice is particularly good! I've been looking for a job the last couple of days and we know things will fall into place. Most of all Sierra and I are stoked to finally unpack our boxes and remember some of the things we own.
