...and many apologies for the lateness of this post;)Week 2 was much of the same for Eagle Five as we continued patching holes in the factory's roof, and "tarrin' it up" group style. As the photos--and our fearless leader Sarah--can tell you, 'many hands make light work' (though we still work hard, trussssst me). We were at battle with the weather for most of the week, braving fierce balance-denying and tool-taking winds on the roof Thursday, and being pushed inside due to rain Wednesday. But it was a blessing in disguise as the interior project of removing black mold-affected sheet rock provided a change of pace from the monotony of roof repair...Just as the communal tar fumes provided everyone with a spontaneous moment of group goofiness before we all headed out for a little spring break r&r Thursday afternoon.
Skills we rocked this week: chop saw, skil saw, and sawzall usage
Something we want more of: community interaction (and i don't mean watching daily drug busts from our rooftop perch, we get enough of that...)
Something we're excited for: coming back to Bmore throughout our service year to see the building's progress, and visit our amazing sponsors...just another perk of local projects:)
Love, peace, and elbow grease,
-AY
