NOVEMBER 11, MARK WEGMEYER

This morning dawned cold and wet. About 35 degrees with rain, but that beats snow! Our group was singled out from the other two as "more skilled," (no idea what gave them that impression!) which is why we ended up at Jose's house. We are quite happy with this assignment, as it allows us to be inside, in a weather tight structure.
Today we continued with the shimming and the drywall. The process is slow as every stud seems to need a slightly different shim setup, but we press on! In the end though, the house will again be a home for someone, and that's a good feeling.
The high point of the day probably came at lunch time as we ventured to the near by "locals" joint. With an airplane on the roof, an aviation motif, and a menu that specialized in large hot dogs, it was quite fitting of it's name, "The Flying Weiner!" (I may need to buy the T-shirt!).
Dinner is almost ready, and although it won't be quite as good as the wonderful spread put out last night by our hosts, we are very thankful for the dinners prepared by wives and LCR members, and look forward to sharing our evening meal with our Detroit friends.
Please keep us in your prayers as you are in ours, as we continue in the Lord's service.

Mark
