Habitatin’ for Humanity


Last Saturday, bright and early, a cadre of MindComet peepz descended on two homes being built for families in need. Well, the houses were pretty much already built. I thought it would be great to learn a new skill, like perhaps laying tile or drywalling. But the pallets of sod placed strategically throughout the yard gave us a tiny hint of what the day would hold. Some of us escaped sod duty and were tasked with roofing a small shed. All in all it was a fun, but tiring day. We helped out a couple of deserving families, met some new folks... and afterwards soaked in a hot bath then crashed for a few hours. Humanitarianism is tough work.
