One of the most enjoyable things during the many days I spent as part of the build was hanging with some of the people. JoElle needed some help staining woodwork at about 3 a.m.. I went to help and found her on the floor trying to get done by herself something that needed 3 people to do. You can also see some of the Red Bull cans that was a big part of keeping everyone moving.
Erin and her cleaning crew spent, what seemed to be 24 hours a day cleaning the inside and out of house #2(the Beach House). We were in what was called a lock down. This meant that there was filming going on outside the houses and we weren’t allowed outside.
Tony I met at a build near my house back home. He was the senior project manager at this Joplin build. When I got down to the build site for the first time I got to see him again. He shook my hand, told me it was good to see me again and……I need you down in house #6 to help with the painting.  I already felt needed and thankful I had come this far to help.
