    Mississippi Rebuilding

    Hi all,

    I been away for a week. I went down to Wakeland, Miss. to help rebuild house with 30 member of my Church. ( Newton Pres. )
    I worked on 3 sites.
    The last site was the biggest job!
    We put 20 ridges up on a house to form the roof by lunch time.
    It's was a good time.
    I would do it again in a heart beat.

    Has anyone else done anything like this ?

    James

      Two summers ago I attended an old-fashioned barn raising.

      The property owner had been victimized by a serial pyromaniac. He lost two barns within a month to fire.

      I read about it in the newspaper on a Wednesday. Saturday morning 50 or so volunteers (myself included) were clearing away the charred remnants of the smaller barn to build on the original foundation.

      By Sunday evening the new barn was framed in, rafters, a metal roof, and sided on three sides. I was exhausted, and quite pleased with the results. At any one time there were as few as 12 and as many as 100 workers onsite.

      The ladies kept a food line running continuously through the whole weekend. The food was amazing. I must admit that fell asleep with a mouthful of food a few hours before I left. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
