Day 2



Guess who found himself trapped under the counter while
installing a drain line for the dishwasher?

Hi Church, it's our second day at the house on Slidell Road. Ron and Bob managed to hook up the dishwasher and it works! They finished the kitchen sink drain which had a small leak. So, once more off to the hardware store to buy more parts. No leaks! Larry and Ron fixed the drain to the hot water heater. The team divided into two parts. Joyce, Nancy, Ann, and Ed spent most of the day painting including the kitchen and laundry room, all of the baseboard trim, the living room ceiling, and the final touch ups. While they did that Rena became the bath tub cleanup expert. Larry and Frank focused on the windows, inside and out, low and high. Once the painting was done everyone helped in cleaning the floors, dusting, cleaning ceiling flans, cleaning up plaster dust, etc.

How many Methodists does it take to
replace a furnace filter?

On the way back to the camp from the house we stopped and asked a teenager for the nearest ice cream store and he told us he didn't know of any! But he did know of a yogurt shop. The problem is that traffic was bad and the only way to get to the yogurt store was to take a short cut through a bank. Yes, we all waved at the teller as we drove through the drive up line. The kid may not know ice cream but the yogurt was great.

We're glad we did God's work today. We're all tired and looking forward to having Jambalaya for dinner. We'll probably work on a puzzle or read and then have an early night. Tomorrow we'll start a new house. God bless all.
