My hope was that the 4 of us could spend this week together, but Erin
had to stay home because her job at Chick-Fil-A was to start....
Instead we brought Jordan, a friend from church, to help with the work!
Terry began work right away... laying block....
He finished the corners that evening! On Tuesday, a couple showed up with
paper towel holders for the cabins they wanted to donate. It turned out to be
the parents of a man in our church! We all had lunch together, then Mr. Work
helped Terry lay block in the afternoon! What a blessing!
Josiah & Jordan had fun working...running equipment! They were busy back
filling the drainage ditch & around the foundation...

We happened to be there the week the Fry's church was having revival. We
headed to church that evening after supper to hear Alton Beal from Ambassador
Baptist College preach.
Wednesday was another long work day.....did I say we had beautiful weather?
It couldn't have been nicer!
Terry continued to lay the block, but what I was amazed at was what Josiah &
Jordan were doing....
| Team work! |
dumping it and spreading it inside the foundation! Pretty neat idea! We headed
back to revival services that night while the guys did facetime with their class
back home!
Thursday was another long but productive day...block laying finished, spreading
stone inside the foundation, cleaning up the area around the new foundation, even
getting started on the decking!....
All that was left for Friday was tarring the walls, finishing the decking and back
filling the foundation... if the tar was dry...
| Almost finished.... |
turned and by lunch it had started raining.... They did manage to get all the decking
on and covered with plastic as the rain started falling.They were so close to being
finished! Only two walls to tar and back filling to do! Terry ended up going back up
for the day about two weeks later to finish this part of the process.
I want to end with two other pictures... one is the drainage ditch covered (Josiah
had started on that last week) & the other just one of the MANY beautiful pictures
of the fall colors.....
God is good....all the time!
