Once again, more miles...

It's amazing how a trip to five stores or vendors can take all afternoon! Forry and I took off before lunch to pick up a few things to keep the crews going and some things I wanted to get before the house dedication next week. We also stopped by the harbor in San Diego to arrange a harbor cruise on Saturday afternoon as an outing for the long-termers. We barely made it back to camp in time for dinner!

I spent an hour on a conference call this morning with the Moderator and Conference Minister of Franklin Mennonite Conference seeking their input on the search for the new director of Mennonite Church USA. It's kind of fun to think about something besides construction details for a little while.

We had the inspection on the sheetrock (wall board) on House #3 this morning so the crew was able to start mudding and taping. The crew at House #2 has all the primer on the walls and has painted a portion of the ceilings.

There was a big group of volunteers -- not ours... -- at House #1 today sprucing up the grounds and weed-whacking in preparation for the Open House tour tomorrow. News about the Open House was in the San Diego paper today, so we may have quite a few people show up. We're not quite sure what to expect, but I expect tomorrow will be a long day!
