First Day on the Job





After a quick orientation with "Project Homecoming" the organization who provides the tools and foreman for the home repairs we were off to our work site. The home is only about two weeks from completion so we are working on a punch list which includes a lot of trim painting, calking, clean up, some dry walling in closets a banister and carpet for the stairs ...a concrete patio and other items. We spent most of the day completing three rooms and made a lot of progress. Our homeowner is a community leader who saved many people by helping them evacuate before Katrina hit. We will meet him later this week. It is exciting to see a home so near completion and another person being able to come home!
