After a productive day 1 the crew couldn’t really think their efforts would match up to the amount of work we all had put in yesterday, they may or may not have been right. Chris, Ted, Joel, Kev, and Andy just about finished the first part of the roof, which was a stellar accomplishment. But more hard work was to come. At lunch time the team made a devastating trade that broke the heart of millions, Kevin and Ted switched with Nick and Connor to the most disgusting job of all time…. Sewage leaks.
With rotted wood and a stench none of you can fathom, the job for Ted, Kevin and Curt (our outstanding leader) seemed impossible or the three just didn’t seem up for such a tumultuous job. Crawling in the muck and mire of the under belly of a rotted house the trio got right to work. Digging, hammering, screwing, and breaking and entering were all in the agenda and unfortunately so was covering our noses, all this for one bathroom floor.
Through all the hard work time was lost, at the house of Harlen Marks, keeping the team from the long awaited barbeque. But before food came the shower, the best part of day, everyone could finally wash off the stench of the house (there are no words on earth to describe this smell.) The barbeque was nice, the food was delicious, and the food seemed to never end, leaving the team with even more leftovers then they had before.
