1/12

Just got out of class. I saw an interesting story on CNN about the homeless in St. Louis. The temperatures there were around 7 degrees during the day with wind chills at -18 degrees at night. Lots of homeless people gather in the tunnels at night to try and get shelter from the harsh conditions. The story was about their struggles, and it highlighted a church who sends its members to volunteer as night watchmen for those that are camping in the tunnel. If someone needs help or gets dangerously cold, these watchmen would provide help for them. Good to see that people are trying to help, especially when the weather has been so freezing.
