Thursday

It finally happened today. The side porch has successfully been ripped of the side of the house and demolished. That was basically Demo Team's goal for this trip. It felt like chasing Moby Dick, only instead of getting dragged underwater, we tore him off the side of a house. The rain cooled the air today, but it didn't slow any progress at all, because we're just that good. Half the group, however, was in the basement where the lights made the area extremely hot, cutting pipes and wires, but mainly focusing on parging. The fresh air (along with the rain) was very rewarding when coming up from underground. It was a fantastic day. Lots of hard work got done, and the thrill of the hunt was experienced by all.
