Tuesday brought continued work at Julia's house. The crew there got the fence all finished except for putting on the chain link. This involved digging more holes and setting the remaining stakes. They also did some repair work on the kitchen cabinets.
The rest of the team headed back to Seaside Park and continued working with Americore. Today we cleared debris from the beach. Most of it was wood planks and pieces from various piers and docks that have washed up on shore. There was also other random debris which we were able to sort out for recycling as well. It was awesome to look back and see the beach cleared where we had been. It was quite a mess upon arrival and to look to see how far we had come in clearing the debris was quite rewarding. We worked with a girl named Savannah who is from Georgia but not Savannah, GA. (I know because that's the first thing I asked her.)
It is safe to say that all of us are pretty worn out, but we are enjoying the many people we have met and are working with. People at the church are clearly going out of their way to assist us and help us get anything we need. Tomorrow night they have planned a pot luck for us and the entire church to celebrate with us and give us a special send off. We ask continued prayer for our work tomorrow and safe travel on Thursday. Thanks to all for your prayer support thus far. It has truly been felt.
