BirdWoman 0 #7 February 16, 2010 Yup, I was there. It was a fun jump, and it was definately an honor to be a part of it. Justin, the outside video, also did an outstanding job. Honestly, Sister Jane made our jobs easy. Her energy was intense and it was for such a good cause. I hope that some day the people in Haiti will be able to see the video and learn about her efforts."I don't know where it is that I'm going, but wherever it is there I'll be!" --quoted by me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
