Hello again



We have now finished two days of actual work and we're kind of tired. Last night we played cards (and I won) but tonight this is just about all I can handle! It is still hot but the humidity has not been as high.
Doug has been working on a "shot gun house". This is a house that has the rooms one after the other with the front door on one end and the back door on the other. If you would shoot a shot gun through the front door; it would go right out the back. There are a lot of these houses here in the south, in the poorer communities. He has been doing some insulating, drywalling, and carpentry work.
I have been doing some taping, mudding and sanding on drywall on another house. This lady, Miss Frances, fixes a meal for all of the "green shirts" at noon time.
We are monitering the storm that is down in the gulf and are hoping that it does not come this way. We do have a place to go to evacuate, if necessary.
Time to go now and am sending love to all.
Doug & Mary
