Time for the blog.

The Blog

Some have asked about updates to the blog.

Our day begins at 6:30 am. Breakfast at 7. We eat at large tables of 6 to 8. The fellowship and conversation keeps us there to 7:30 when we have devotions and announcements. The announcements are when the final schedule for the day is announced. Then there are the chores, cleaning the dining hall, the dorm rooms and bath rooms.

Those not involved begin gathering tools and materials from the warehouse. The cars are loaded and with luck we are on the road by around 8:15. It is about 25 minutes to either job site. Work begins pretty quickly and we have no formal breaks until a decision is made to break for lunch. We usually eat on the site. Then work begins again. There may be an occasional break for a trip to a near by church to use the bath room or a parts run to Lowes.

About 4:30 we begin to pack up tools and supplies and head back to the camp. Back about 5 may take a break and shower. Team leaders meet with each other and camp leaders and begin to map out the work for the next day. Dinner at six. Devotions right after and so it is not to at least 7 that most of us have any free time. Mississippi is an hour earlier than Vermont. So new stuff is not posted until around eleven Vermont time.

We have also had some practical problems posting pictures.

We will keep working at it.
