THURSDAY -- Do it again

This is what happens: do a job well and then get to do it again. And, no surprise, today we moved to the next 2-unit foundation and commenced the work on its deck. We were told that we were now "experienced"!

Just so you know that we actually worked again today........

MARIE'S POWER GUN NAILS PLASTIC TO SILL.

TOM (L) AND ANDY CHECKING MEASUREMENTS.
Actually, this week there are several groups on site, working on single family homes and the 2-unit duplexes. Two of these teams moved to our Wednesday unit and laid in the subflooring.

  1. From a high school in Bedford Hills, NY -- six students here with their art teacher and another adult chaperone.
  2. 
    BEDFORD HILLS
    
  3. From metro NY area, Tuesday's Children -- 22 young people who lost a family member in the Tuesday 911 tragedy here with the founder of the organization and a couple other adults.
TUESDAY'S CHILDREN
This isn't the first Habitat trip for Tuesday's Children, but it is their first to Mississippi. Service work is very much in keeping with their motto, "Helping Heals" as it brings together children who were greatly affected by the loss of a loved one, in most cases, a parent. Local TV interviewed them.
