Today I went with Ryan again to the Park Hills crews. Ryan had made some cookies and cream puffs so we were going to give those away.
Our first stop was to see the Glueless crew. They were done with the driveway, the shed, and the deck. They were cleaning things up when we got there at about 1:30, and some of the members of their crew were helping out the Drips and Runs (I'll get to them later). They had done a wonderful job and had finished fast. I guess they'll be helping another crew tomorrow.
The Gufus Roofers were doing well. They had painted a lot and it was really coming along. They were eating watermelon that the youth leader from Ester Baptist had brought them. Scott showed us a song and dance to his version of the World Changers song, "Squirrel Chaser." It was funny!
I was glad we actually got to chat with Regina from the Drips and Runs because Tuesday they were pretty busy so we really didn't get to talk to any of them. Regina was really nice and judging by her optimistic attitude, I'd say she was their Crew Encourager, although I'm not sure because I forgot to ask. lol! Sorry! Anyway...Regina was telling us about the crew, she said that they had got a lot of help from locals and from other crews like the Gufus Roofers. She also said that they would probably finish today. They were doing awesome because they looked like they had a pretty tough job, but they did it! There was some concern still about the car port, Regina said she wasn't sure if they were going to fix it or have someone else fix it later on.
The Dandy Sanders were busy roofing. They were happy to see me and Ryan because we had brought them brownies Tuesday. This time we came equiped with cream puffs which their crew chief was happy about. He said he was going to keep them and not tell anyone where they were. lol! They had informed their home owner that they were going to finish today and they'd come back tomorrow to finish cleaning up.
The Dumpsters were our last stop for the day. Some of them were painting the front pourch, while the others were finishing on the roof. I got the chance to talk to Wesley from Illinois. He told us about going to the Bonne Terre Mines with his youth group yesterday for their free night. He thought it was really neat. He told that this week had went by really fast and that it kind of made him sad that it was almost over.
I had a lot of fun today chatting it up with all the different World Changer crews. Tomorrow I'm back to the Farmington/Bonne Terre crews, hopefully I won't miss them this time.
