We hooked up with the Boston College crew who are here working with W2W. We went to a neighborhood nearby where they have built eight new houses. We worked on landscaping all day - raking loam, planting bushes and trees, mulching, etc. It was fun to work with the kids - lots of energy. They are here for a week and will be returning to classes next Monday. We had a cookout for dinner tonight - burgers and coleslaw. Got to talk to all of our kids tonight - everyone is doing fine. Nick has heart surgery (another ablation) on Tuesday so will talk with Laura Tuesday night to see how he is doing. We will be thinking of them and sending positive thoughts their way. We have been chatting with some of the guys from BC - they are an interesting group - all different majors and from all parts of the country. We will work for Habitat again tomorrow and find out who we will be working with. I am going to attempt to put a photo on the blog tonight - will have to see if this works!
