3rd and final week in Jordan, MN

On Sunday night at the beginning of our third week, we held a cookout campfire in the parking lot with the whole gang and Pastor Larry and his wife Vickie

On Monday morning, Mike is back at the tile in the bathroom...

as is Stel who is measuring for more holes to cut.

Jodi is cleaning last week's work in preparation for grout,

and Ruth Ann tries her hand at installing tile.

Stel & Jodi cleaning more tile for grouting.

After grouting, Bev and Celia are washing tile for the final time.

Meanwhile, Dave is cutting ceiling tile to fit around the perimeter

as is Roger

and Jack

and Steve.

The guys have set the cabinets which do not fit the plan because the plumbing is in the wrong place and now are trying to fit the countertop but it does not fit either.  Next project.

Coleen, Celia and Bev are removing carpet from the original part of the building to allow for new carpet into the new building.

A big job for little Bev but Celia is tall enough to pull it free.

Celia and Barb pulling tacks and remnents for the old carpet.

Meanwhile, Dave and Roger have moved to installing window trim previously stained and finished by the ladies.

Thursday night was our last meal together at the Pastor's house.  The whole group is present with Celia seated to the left, Jodi seated to the right and the first row from the left is Steve, Ruth Ann, Barb, Bev, Stel and Coleen, and the back row from the left is Mike, Jack, Roger, and Dave.  A happy time but a sad one as well.  It was a wonerful 3 weeks.

The pleasure of the project was due in no small meaure by the duo of Vickie and Pastor Larry.  We will not soon forget these wonderful people, but it is time to move on.
