Working with the Montrose Habitat for Humanity was fantastic. It was a bit overcast out, but we made it a great day for building!
With my coffee in hand, I was ready to start hammering some foam to the walls. We also wrapped two whole houses with a special insulation wrap. It was difficult because you had to have everything tight and flush, but we managed. Charlotte, Vant, and I worked hard with our foam cutting and made some good progress. Then I had to take a break with the usual crew for our photo shoot.
I also helped run a bike clinic with Michelle to teach a boy about bike safety.
We made an obstacle course, but the one boy that showed up didn't bring his helmet! We tried to stress the importance of protecting the brain.
The construction manager was really awesome, and she was great to work with. Unfortunately they often obly have about 4 volunteers. One of the houses ended up looking like this:
Johnny, our leader also made a cameo, and there was limbo at the end of the build day.
For dinner we had food delivered from Chilli's! Then we had our family meeting and an impromptu dance party and some makeovers. It's been a grand day of building and being goofy with some of my favorite people!
