My next volunteer opportunity will take me to Bogalusa, Louisiana, about 70 miles north of New Orleans, to work with Habitat for Humanity (H4H) to help victims of Hurricane Katrina. I will be teaming up with Solid Rock Carpenters (check them out at www.solidrockcarpenters.org) who partner with H4H. The goal is to frame 10 homes in 5 days! Pretty wild!! Once the homes are standing, smaller groups of volunteers will continue working on the finishing aspects of building through the winter and spring. Families will be working along side our team on the construction of their homes. I can't wait to become a solid rock carpenter!!
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! The energizer bunny (or piggy) is on the move again! Yay! Taking care of kids is one thing, but I'm a little leery with you operating power tools on a construction site - yikes! Remember, the hammer is for pounding the nails and not your head okay! Please be careful and don't hurt yourself.....or your fellow volunteers for that matter! Have a great time. Love you much my dear! A big smile for you : )

10 Homes in 5 days... That's pretty cool.
However, I checked out the pic's in the site that you've mentioned. A very decent job. Keep it up.
