This has been a day of problems and disappointments. The day started with a power outage at Red Bird. Breakfast was cold cereal, bananas, apples and juice. Many people missed their morning cup of coffee. We left for our worksite without, Jerry, our Red Bird supervisor, who told us he would join us later. Jeriry drives the Red Bird work van. We realized after we left for the worksite that Jerry had the ladders we needed to get on the roof. We talked to the group working on the house next door and were able to obtain one of their ladders in exchange for Norma and Lynne working with them for the day. We next realized that Jerry also had the box of coil roofing nails that we needed so we began to hand nailing the shingles. Jerry finally arrived without the ladder or nails, drove back to Red Bird and then returned with the ladders and nails. We did finish the main roof today and we will complete the porch roof tomorrow.
Tonight was talent night at Red Bird, but since our group was lacking any talent to share we just watched the other groups perform. It was obvious that the other groups had prepared in advance for this night. John and Bob are leaving for home Friday morning so we presented them with their gifts tonight.
The last disappointment of the day was that the Penguins lost to Montreal.
