so much to do so little time

A rare sighting of Susan Hailey doing manual labor.
She grabbed Bradley and they became the trash emptiers for a while.
It really is not a rare sight; I am just kidding.
 Here are the chairs all done. Beautiful greenish blue (some froo froo person said teal I think).
 Here is the main hall window with wonderful colors, and what a grand window it is now. Even though it is still just a window, there is a lot of love coming from that corner.
 This is our major project for this trip. Bill and Gary are the only ones that are still with it. Several more were there at the start, but the herd thinned fairly quiclyk. It is awesome to see them making great progress.


 Here is Edward showing off the "swag" for the library. I personally always thought that was a dance or something, but he swears that is the right term.
 Here is the marbling of the steps. Wow!  It is so simple, yet so elegant (Yeah I stole that quote).

 AND not so elegant are the ones getting down and dirty. Here are David and Linda hard at work making the stairs look all purty. They are doing an amazing job of getting it all over themselves.
Unfortunately for Clara, she must have asked for patience, because this job is surely working it.
She tells me she is putting piping on pillows, but to me it looks like just tedious sewing.
Because the sewing machines are not working properly, our crew has had to resort to sewing by hand with extra thick fabric and extra knotty thread.
She got the job of the century!!
