Tuesday March 15th

Today was our second day on the work site. We painted the remainder of the poles in the breezeway surrounding the courtyard. We finished doing both coats and touching up the last 70 poles by lunchtime.  While we were finishing that, some of the group started repairing the picket fence in front of the building. Some of the pickets in the fence were rotten and the paint was peeling off. We had to get rid of some of the more rotten boards, but luckily we had another board that we could use to replace the boards. We also scraped off the old paint and repainted about half the fence. By the time we left the half of the fence looked exponentially better than before. The new paint on the fence and the poles made the whole building look newer and more beautiful. We look forward to finishing the fence tomorrow in the morning and going to the beach in the afternoon!
