We worked at a house in Bayside (near Waveland south of hwy 90) today. We worked on punch list items: installing moulding, plumbing, installing closet doors, installing a window sill, and general site cleanup. We have a couple of items to finish up tomorrow. I'm really happy with what we've accomplished in these 2 days. Our group is working well together, and we are having a great time of it too. I'm not surprised though. If 8 people from First Parish were picked at random and sent off to volunteer here, I would expect the same.
We met several folks today; several of our group talked with the homeowners and some of their friends. They came away with some mixed feelings, but I'm glad that they talked with them. I'm anxious to get together later to hear what they feel, and to meet when we get back to Boston to compile some our memories so that we can share them with the Congregation.
Tomorrow we're scheduled to do interior painting at another house in the Bayside area., and I believe we'll meet that homeowner as well. We'll probably split our group and have one van cover the finish work at the first site while the second starts on the painting.
Jackie recommended a Cuban restaurant that's nearby, so we' may head out there for dinner, after a bite of Camp Coastal spaghetti that is.

It's so great to hear word of you all. I love that we've got a little Cafe Blue Hills down in the southland! We're sending you lots of love.
