It's Another Habitat for Humanity Saturday!

8/4/07 -- Though Vickie and I have enjoyed volunteering for Habitat for Humanity for awhile now, Devin was always too young to join in. Well, not anymore.

Since turning 16, Devin can now swing a hammer and tote a load like the rest of us.

I'm proud to say he wasted no time getting to work and even managed to keep up with the regulars.

Within an hour of arriving, Devin was on the roof and decking it like a pro!

I gotta say, it was not the best day for manual labor. With barely a cloud in the sky, the temperature quickly reached 90-some-odd degress.

By the end of the day the entire house was decked and ready for the roofers.

Also, the house Vickie and I framed several months ago was recently dedicated to a new family.

Devin enjoyed the work so much he plans to volunteer again soon and thinks he may even look for a construction job next summer.
