Construction Underway!!!

The house frames arrived in MS last week by truck, and our team is currently working on three houses, each in different stages.
On Sunday, most of the team worked on manually demolishing the old house on the second site with sledgehammer and crowbars. The first house is coming along well, it now has interior walls, exterior walls, and windows.
Today is another beautiful day in MS! One foundation is all set, and our mason is laying cinder blocks at the second sight. The third sight is coming along with the foundation being dug (with a machine this time) early this morning. The cement truck came at 10, so now we are praying the slab will dry quickly so the blocks can be layed this afternoon.
WB TV will continue their nightly coverage of Operation Rebound, on the 10pm news.
Our reporter, is particularly excited about the show tonight, on which he interviews one of the widows who will be receiving a house!
