The LooneyHoons consist of Rhonda and Larry Hoon, Michael Gallagher, Caelyn Eppler, Kennedy McMillen, Betsey and Katey Strader, Matt Lowe and Connor Stump. We have gotten a lot of work done so far this week and have a team that is determined to get the job done. Our task this week is to build a porch, complete with two sets of stairs, a roof and a swinging gate, for a family of three. They are a very nice family, and the son and father have actually been a huge help with the building process. The mother works at the Henderson Settlement as a cook, so although we don't see her much at the home, we do see her at meal times.
Along with the porch, we ran into a problem with a drain in the driveway. Basically this "drain" is at a lower elevation than the little creek which runs right next to the driveway.
As you can see, there is not much draining going on here. Rhonda spent the first hour or so just trying to scoop up all of the water and dig out the mud and gunk from the "drain". It looked pretty good until we came back from lunch and found that all of the water had returned. So the water problem has pretty much just been busy work for people when they are not needed for drilling or cutting.
The Hoon squad has had a very successful first 3 days, and we are looking forward to finishing the porch by the end of the week.
Wishing everyone back home a safe and happy week and we will see you when we return!
