I hope everyone managed to survive the snow this past weekend. There were 4+ inches in my front yard but none on the street. It sounds like NYC got buried. Another reason to be glad we live here in good old West Virginia!
I know that all of the regular crews worked extra hard last week to help our visitor, Seth, to get a roof on House 104. Thanks again for stepping up to the challenge. Seth, as you know by now, is an inspired and motivated character. If you'd like to learn more about what he's doing and why he's doing it, go to www.leapoffaithroofing on the internet.
I got to help out a little on the roof work this past Friday. I learned alot from Tiny, Bob Scholl, Ron Claar and Bob Pierson. Bob Pierson will be vising Thibadeaux, LA soon with a group of Care-a-Vanners to help that devastated area.
Ruel Elliott put in an extra day's volunteer work on Saturday past at House 103. He and some other members of Forrest Burdette United Methodist did some painting. Forrest Burdette has been a great partner with Habitat in so many ways. They have a group out to work on the second Saturday of every month. We are extremely fortunate to be the beneficiaries of their dedication and support.
We always appreciate the amazing committment of our Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday crews...putting up with Tiny and Lavern ain't easy!
