Cincinnati, OH Build Day!!!

We slept in today! 6:45 am! I'm using lots of explanation marks
because today we build!!!! The site we worked at had three Habitat
houses being worked on, all in the begining stages, we worked on the
roof trusses and building scaffolding. I was able to go into downtown
Cincinnati with the the building manager, Bob, and two other bike and
builders in Oder to get more scaffolding. It was really cool being
able to chat about Habitat with him and their new ReStore, it made me
miss my Habitats back home a little bit. After a little more roofing
it started to storm and we had to end our work day. I may have taken a
little too long getting to the vans, but I just had to help the old
men volunteers pick up the tools from the day! Showers then dinner,
and then Will's mom came to visit! She brought cookies, milk, and that
special motherly love which we all really appreciated Will sharing
with us. She was just fantastic! For the rest of the evening we sat
around in the grass, journaling, reading, blogging, chatting, playing
the "ha ha" game and scratching each others heads. Yeah, we are pretty
close with each other.

I want to give a shout out to the Iowa service trip leaving from
Allendale, MI, I'll be with you in spirit and you are all in my
thoughts and prayers. Go out and serve!

  1. I'm glad you had a good day building! Only 7 more days till you build again :) Kabul Beauty acadamy was really good. Drew's open house went well, we had lots of people and lots of food :) I got a bunch of mosquito bites and saw a bunch of old friends

    For the June 10 mail,just in case I forget to tell you or get too busy, if you leave yourself out, you can give 2 segments. That should make sense on thursday, but you didn't text me in time :)
