We had a great week. The kids in Group 5 worked with out one complaint. We didn’t get a lot of pictures during Work Camp because we were, well… working but here are a few:

We had our work cut out for us as you can see. believe it or not, this was the good side of the house! There were rotted boards everywhere and the old paint was barely hanging on.

On The Run

Arlington Work Camp has happened every summer for 13 years. This was the first year that it was hit with rain. We really were only able to work on our house for half of the three days that we were scheduled to because thunderstorms forced us off the work sites. My wife took this shot as we were driving away from the storms.

    Ah…work camp! It was always so fun! I just don’t get how working so hard in the hot sun could be so enjoyable. I actually met a guy that would eventually be my brother-in-law at a work camp. He was the youth minister that was with the group from Colorado and we worked on the same house together. It is so weird to have a picture with him years before I ever met his wife’s brother!
