Servant's Heart Camp ~ Week 2

We headed back up to Servant's Heart for week #2 arriving around 3PM.
 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!
 Jordan was taking that shale and dumping it into Josiah's bucket, then he was
 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....
 This last picture was taken in the late morning...unfortunately, the great weather
 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.....
