The temp was in the high 50's and was perfect for painting. Burnell & Ruth painted doors in a house across the street, while Janet painted moulding at another house.
Pastor Bill, Duane & I (chris) installed wire shelving in closets, trimmed out door frames & got things ready for cutting a few boards to make windowsills.
NOTHING is square in these houses. It takes several cuts ...all custom, to make things fit half decent. But there is nothing that a lot of caulk can't fix....haha.

Duane was having way too much fun with the nail gun once he learned how to use it. And Ruth was the "caulk queen" at the end of the day.
Janet came up to me before supper & said, "I want you to know that I Do Pray". It took me a few minutes to catch the drift. She spent the entire day "on her knees" painting. I promised to give her a break tomorrow, but someone HAS to do it. Hmmm, who is going to be the lucky one.
There is a team of 20 college students from Baltimore working with the same organization
"Block By Block" this week. Several were installing siding on the garage out back at the house we were working at. They were laughing & goofing off more than they were working. We had fun watching them try to knock down a small building next door with sledge hammers. The building was still standing when they left for the day.

Stay tuned for more pics tomorrow.
Chris, why is it that on every one of your workcamps, they have you pictured as either hammering, sawing, or drilling your fellow workers. I was wondering why we can't get volunteers. Be kind and don't bring them all back bent, folded, and mutillated.
ReplyDeleteOn the other side it looks like you are having a great time and may God be with all of you.
