06/01 build day

We had two super groups of volunteers on a lovely, sunny day. Folks from 
Perkin Coi & St Luke for Thivent put in a good day's work.


First, get the place organized. With work in a constant flow, there's always cleaning
 and organizing to be done. These folks jumped right in 

 

It was all systems go with drywall in house 5, with a few tricky cuts thrown in for good
 measure. And if you recognize the fellow in the red hat, you'll see that Terry's back!


Hall was working with some of our volunteers to continue the siding installation on the Women Build house.


St Luke folks also getting the siding on the Thrivent house. They're at the scaffolding stage. :)


RiLen works with some volunteers to get the weed whacker going so they can tidy up the site.


Protecting the siding from any splashes that may occur when they pour concrete for the front porches.

 

My job for the day? Build a plenum. I had no idea what one was and there are no particular plans as how to build one. So I used my very special skills to make it as frustrating & time consuming as possible. There was still a bit a fiddling to be done at end of day, but it got up. Yeah! The next one should go smother, as is usually the case. I hope :-P

 

You can see, they made good progress on the WB house.

Until next time, live you best life, however big or small it may be!
