Build days in Mobile

We were fortunate enough to work with Habitat of Mobile County for 2 days while we were in Mobile. They're doing something different than the other organizations we've worked with so far. Due to the large number of foreclosures in Mobile in recent years the Habitat chapter there is buying them and refurbishing them for the future homeowners. We split up into 2 worksites, and on my site we primed and painted all of the rooms which took the majority of our first workday. The second day we laid some laminate flooring in the bedrooms while some of us helped repair a shed in the backyard. The build site was a little more disorganized than we were expecting and accustomed to, so we felt a bit unproductive in the mornings as we tried to determine exactly what it was we were supposed to do. But after we figured it out we were on a roll. We've already made it to NOLA and have been busy exploring. Expect a blog post to follow soon, and our 5 build days start tomorrow!
