So I have a great story,



Yesterday was a crazy day. I was in the office oh about 30 min then I was unloading 18- wheelers, moving people etc. Well I would like to tell you about a good friend of mine. His name is Craig Boutte. The story starts like this. Myself and anther guy were busy moving this widow out of storage to her new trailer in G-town. It was not the easiest move job I have ever done but wasn’t that bad. Well Craig calls me and is asking if I need help so I’m like sure. Craig shows up and is like a man on a mission, he’s killing it, putting boxes in places that boxes can’t fix….he must be a Tetris Champion!!!. So we finish packing down the four cars and one trailer with tons of stuff, and decided it time to make our journey through Gonzales. Ok this is where it gets crazy, I’m following the widow and Craig and gaylin are following me. Everything seems fine till we go to turn on Hwy 44, then “BOOM” I look in my rear view mirror and a box had fallen out of the trailer and busted open. I see Craig and Gaylin slam on there brakes and get out. I pull over and begin to run towards the box. Its five o’clock traffic, cars are stopped and honking when I see Craig stop the frantic motions to get the box picked up. He stands up and in his had he is holding a cross with Jesus on it!! He stands there and thrust the cross in the air and yells “Jesus wanted out of the box”!!!!!! And for that brief instant stopping rush hour traffic didn’t seem so bad and the broken glass that was every where didn’t seem to bad. So that’s my story I guess you had to be there but it was so funny. While we where moving her stuff in I found an old trinity shirt (old hpc name) so I had to show you the cross and the shirt!!
