Busy busy busy



Last weekend Kim, Zoe and I biked the Hilly Hellacious Hundred. After a few miles I decided to bike the metric century instead of 100 miles. So I enjoyed my beautiful bike ride through Asheville and completed the 62 miles easily. Monday Ben came to visit. We checked out a local breakfast place and walked around before hanging out with my friends at the apartment. Tuesday he was pressed into services and came out to volunteer with me.

This past week was spent doing extensive prep work for the 30 hour Build house. We did a lot of hauling materials and tools to the job site as well as framing all the walls. Then Friday at 6am the Build started! Sean and I spent 12 hours there yesterday (4am-4pm) then went back this morning at 3. Lowe’s sponsored the house and had a lot of their employees out volunteering with us in shifts. The house started as a blank slab and 30 hours later was a finished house! It was a great start to Habitat’s 30th Anniversary Festivities!

Tonight I’m flying to Providence to Run the Rock and Roll Half Marathon with Molly and Ron. It’ll only be a short trip because I have to work on Monday for the Rodgers Builders Blitz Build! I love my crazy busy life!






30 Hours later- the house is finished!
