build day

Howdy All,

After a rockin' breakfast, the crew headed out for the build site. It was pretty cool, they gave us hard hats, glasses, hammers, and tool belts. Once we had our gear on, we were introduced to how the build site works and given some safety pointers. We worked for about an hour or so, I helped make T's, and then worked on the trench around the house for the stucko stuff on the foundation.

Then the rain came. We scrambled for some cover and ate lunch. We called the build day off and took a ride to some communities around where Habitat built houses, they looked great. We even went inside one of the finished houses, it looked really cozy.

Thanks to Hoyle for giving me some gloves to replace the riding gloves that are falling apart on me.

See ya'll later.

Chapel Hill, NC

Howdy all,

It's been a hard route so far! We had a bunch of hills today, and my right knee is hurting pretty good. Luckily it was only 40 miles today. Weather is nice here, and the campus is big and warm!

My gear is holding up well, but my gloves are getting big holes in them, so I'm looking for some new ones.

That's all for now, don't have a way to post pics yet, but I'll try when I can.
