I don't want to sound like a broken record with repetition.....but, Most of the work today was a continuation of yesterday, with a few exceptions.
The guys from Steppin Out Missions made major progress in the kitchen today. New electrical feeds were run to the new 220 volt compressors and evaporators for the walk in coolers. The basement of the kitchen is currently a dark, musty void but soon it will be an illuminated new storage space.
Do to the diligence of our electricians, one of the original 2 buildings in the central court that became know as the "house of horrors" because of its disastrous wiring and cramped attic, has been rewired and a new service panel installed. Great job John Albright, Matt Aungst, Ken and Art!!! The rest of the electricians spent most of the day either on the hill side cabins or hopping around camp fixing odds and ends like the irrigation pump down by the river. A new pole mounted breaker panel was installed to supply electricity to the farm and the water pumping station.The linemen joined in with the electricians on a few of these tasks and vice versa....a true team effort to get this project through to completion. Up in the boys dorm, a few accents were added....a bold strip down the hall and a few windows have new curtains. We can't wait to see the end result ladies!

The bon fire scheduled for last night was postponed due to heavy cloud cover and chance of rain. It didn't rain last night but we did have a few passing sprinkles throughout the day today. This gave us a comfortably cool work day today, that was much appreciated. A Blessing to the team as the push is on to get things finished up in just 2 more days!
