I've been in the habit of bolting out of school on fridays and driving north. I say goodbye to the Astronomy Club kids, hop in the car and drive two hours in the waning but magnificent burnt orange sunlight 'til I make my way to Grindstone Corners! I get to the church with some pent up energy and literally run around like a kid.

| I know, no running on ladders...in a skirt! |
Mike arrives after me, since he has to stay later at his job. So on this particular day, I got to see it first.
 |
| See what? |
See the new drywall, of course!
What does it look like? Well, I knew that Mike's jaw would drop when he saw, so I had the camera ready when he arrived.
Let me indulge myself by showing you a happy person!

| Hi Hunny! Notice anything different? |
 |
| Ye aulde dropped jawe... |
 |
| DANG! What a difference! |
So I don't have any nice, Pinterest-worthy photos of what new drywall looks like, but here's what I do have:
 |
| North side of Church |
 |
| before... |
 |
| ...and after. |
 |
| And the south side of the Church. |

| DRYWALL! |
Wayne and son came back on Saturday to do some mudding. It was the cutest thing; Wayne up on the scaffold slapping down drywall mud, and son pushing the scaffold along!
 |
| Teamwork! |
Before you know it, the team had finished up, and we had walls!
 |
| Awesome! |
Stucco-finish paint next. Color choice will be an intense decision. Stay tuned!
