Wednesday half day!!!
Half day Wednesday was a crazy day. We spent the first half of the morning working on our houses, and then after lunch we went off to have fun. We found a Putt Putt Golf and Games, and for the afternoon we played mini golf, video games, go karts, batting cages, and bumper boats. In the bumper boat pool a Sami Veller and Luke Wozniak decided they would throw me into the pool. It’s sad that these kids haven’t figured out that I never go down without a fight. Needless to say the only ones in the pool were the kids. Then to finish the night we went and watched some fireworks. I'm exhausted but the teens are still going strong.
I figured I’d update you on the progress at the house where I’m working. In my group are Dylan Sheets, Ryan Dietrich, Luke Wozniak, Morgan Peebles, Kinsey Horner, and Kristin Foster. Our home owner is Miss Polly, and today she even cooked us lunch. It was pretty much amazing, corn on the cob, chicken, fruit, potato salad, and baked beans. On Miss Polly’s house we are working on putting up shingles on her roof. The roof was leaking badly, so our job has been to cover the roof with new plywood and drip edge. Hopefully, tomorrow we’ll start putting up the shingles. We’ve also sanded and painted some of the ceiling in her house and cleaned part of her house. The kids have had an amazing attitude, and they’ve worked so hard. It’s hard to believe they are the same kids that we left with in Carmel. They’ve been amazing. By now they are almost professional roofers, so when they get home re-roofing the house can now be added to their list of chores.
Hi, this is Megan Murphy. My group is Cove Lee, Tyler Bowman, Lauren McWhorter, Hanna Pope, Ellie A. and Cody D. Our home owner is Miss Sandra. We have been working on deshingling 6 layers of shingles and preparing to redo her roof. The kids have all been working really hard. Some of them are a little to fearless when it comes to working on the roof, but so far no major injuries. Tomorrow we’ll start tar papering and putting shingles on. It’s been extremely hot, especially on the roof, but the kids have listened really well and there hasn’t been too much complaining. So, when they get home, you should be able to put them to work and shouldn’t hear any questions or complaints.

Well that's enough for tonight, I'll send one more post tomorrow.
