Build Day 2 - Fiberglass and Caulking are the name of the day

Last night it snowed here in Kilmarnock, VA.  It was a heavy, wet snow which resulted in lots of slush but by this morning it was all gone and only left lots of run-off which made the jobsite a little wet and muddy.  Today there were inside jobs and under the house jobs.  I know that Tom Feltmate and Jim Wignall will be able to relate to the dirty under the house jobs!  With this house, there is a poured concrete floor which is different from the past houses which only had dirt floors in the crawl space.  And although the concrete floor sounds like it would be an improvement (which it is) it was VERY dusty work.  Thank goodness for face masks!

Another group spent the day indoors caulking and painting the baseboards that were installed yesterday.  The day ended with a team trip to the dump to empty out the trailer so we can fill it up tomorrow when we are working at the ReStore here in town.

We enjoyed a wonderful meal at the local Mexican restaurant Los Patrones with some of the Habitat folks.  The night ended with our group sharing time with some brainstorming for our service preparation to be presented on April 15 and our letter from home was written by Ruth Sword.
