Make-A-Mess Ahead of Schedule

If you wanted to take part in the demolition, you missed out. Matt, Gadis, Scott, Eva, Adam and Kelley have already torn down the inner walls. Matt, Kelley and Emilie have already torn out the carpet and there is not much demolition left. Eva was knocking down walls with a great deal of shoulder power, while Gadis and Matt used Matt's new tool. Richard and Robert were both there working and Richard only had one good leg.

Scott disconnected "most" of the power before we started and we found a four inch pipe with an unknown purpose in one of the walls. It was a great deal of fun and I am excited about the opportunity that will exist while youth gather there this fall and beyond.

One thing I've learned is that when Matt sets his mind on something, step back, because it will get done. He seems to collect people around him that get it done as well. I love spending time with people that make messes.
