When I knew that my friend Phyllis from Vineyard was coming out to the house today, I got excited and decided to join her for a great morning together. Her husband, Dan, had the day off and came out too. It was great to be together with them and the regular Wednesday crew, they accomplished a lot in just the morning. Thanks Mom for hanging out with the kids for the morning! :)
The house now has no second floor, but not for long! The plan for the afternoon was to start rebuilding it on top of the framing that is already in place on the main floor. Phyllis and I tore off siding from what will become a back porch area, hauled things to the dumpster, and did lots of sweeping!
I also had the opportunity to meet a woman named Amy who coordinates volunteers at her church Trinity Lutheran of Roselle. They hope to encourage more of their members to volunteer to work at Habitat sites in the area. It was great to be able to touch base with her this morning, and encourage her interest in having the church come out.
Here are some pictures from the morning:
