Today was Wednesday.

Charlie is going to report on his team and what they did today. "On my team today was Lizzie, Jennifer, Daniel, and Brittany. We spent the whole day moving dirt and tried to get it so her front yard was sloped so water would flow off her front yard better. It was a lot of hard work. we were lucky though because her house shaded us from the sun most all day. The Lady was super nice. We filled up a cinder block area with dirt so the blocks would stay in place . And we filled up the middle of the blocks with top soil. When were all done, Brittany took us to Sonic for an afternoon treat."

Ben Shaw is going to report on his team. "Conor and Don Moser were on my team today. We finished they dry walling the ceiling at the house on stilts. We completed a wall. This week was the first time I have ever done dry walling. Tomorrow we are hoping to finish the room. and then we will move on to the last room. We also had a chance to get some mudding and taping done as well. We were able to save our backs with a nifty little contraption that Don brought from our base camp. It lifted up the drywall to the ceiling so it was much easier to do the ceiling with that tool. It was a good day for us. Our little team did pretty well, and had a good time!"

James Marshall is going to report on his team. "Taylor, Ali, Amber, Noel, and i were on a team today. We went to the homeless shelter. We painted their whole kitchen. And we also served lunch to about 12 -15 homeless people who came through. Then we had a chance to help them by buying them some VGA cables for their computers, and a new faucet because theirs was broken. Sam (the lady we work with their) was ecstatic when we gave her the gifts. Then we took Sam, and our team and got Sonic together. The day was very work filled and entertaining."

We will have our other team report soon. we have to start chapel right now. We just got back from the SPOT for dinner. it was really good food!
