Last Full Work Day

Mechanic Mike was the man today! Changed those rotors in record time.

Sorry Matt, I meant's to say that Matt helped Mike change the rotors...happy now?

Yep, it's a meeting of the minds.

Not an easy job today for Bill.  We gave up on that door frame and will start fresh tomorrow.

One Nancy.........
Two Nancys.


Hayden signed the floor today just like the rest of Team Gary did.

We bought fresh hay today for the dogs. 

See how happy they are. They kept thanking us over & over again.

What are they all starring at,.....the wall?

I guess I worked Jim so hard today that he couldn't stand up straight anymore.

Go Muriel!


Muriel & Gail at preschool today.

Matt left us today. The gals took him into town so he could catch a flight to Colorado.




Church service & final farewell to all the teams.

More Photos!

Tuesday morning we came across this car in the ditch with the horn blaring.....the driver had already gotten out and hitched a ride home. While we were there his mother & brother arrived at the scene to see what had happened. Amazing the young man walked away with minor injuries. We took a moment to talk with the mother and pray with her. She was obviously upset after seeing the crash site.



Below are our old friends....Team Michigan!


All hands on board to get'r done.

Dave Snyder......we have another safety violator here. Don't know what we are going to do with these guys!


Mike & Matt cutting out the door frame.


What Day Is It???......Hump Day!

And all you folks at home wonder why you have not heard from us.....Cell reception here is really bad.

This is Team Gary with their home owners.

David is sporting his Henderson Settlement T-Shirt.

Team Gary's "Nancys" (painted on their britches).....long story, ask David or watch Everybody Loves Raymond.

Bluegrass on Tuesday evening followed by homemade ice cream.

Finally.....a photo of Muriel working. If she did not give us this photo we were going to insert the photo we have of her in her nightgown getting morning coffee.......guess the threat worked.

Dinner tonight at Ryans in Middlesboro.

We always knew that Chris was full of bright ideas, but we actually saw the light emanating this time right from her brain.

A view out our window this morning.....breath taking!

Only 999 more to cut Tonya.

Who is that guy behind the siding?.......Is it our neighbor Wilson or is that Mike peeking ?.....

NO....... regardless what Bonnie has told you, she did not mud this entire room herself!

Tonya finished her day by helping us hang the last few pieces of drywall.....She gets an A+....atta girl!

What A Way To Start The Day.......

Muriel volunteered our team to do the devotions this morning. The subject was JOY and after our late night playing cards and laughing I'm surprised any of us had any JOY left....we laughed till our guts hurt and Gary had a headache.....second thought, maybe the headache came from him being the high points (loser) in 5 Crowns.

Gary was in charge of the "Saunders" project. Here is his team of drywall mudders & sanders. Tomorrow they will graduate & the painting should begin. Maybe I can borrow his mudders for my project.

A view from the "Saunders" project. The heavy fog we experience every morning in these mountains is lifting in the background.

Gary & his crew paid our team a visit today...peaking in our window to see what we were doing.

Dave Snyder can you find the safety violation in this photo? Mike must not have been there the year you fell off the bucket.

Gary, I told you 3 times now.......I'm the real boss here!!!

Guess Gary got the message....he is working and the "boss" is eating.

Speak of eating, David always buys treats for all of the dogs at our jobsites. See how excited they are.

Sam has been building her arms up on this trip.

Yes that is a smile on Bill's face...still in the JOY mode.



Tonya may indeed have sore hands from all the cutting she did today......sorry Tonya there is still more to go tomorrow.

You took notice who is doing the work here, right?
