Insulation and a painting party

Before getting into this blog, I need to say that our fearless leader Jo is in the hospital.  Please keep her and Jim in your thoughts and prayers.

The Board turned out en force for the painting party and kept up intimidating banter throughout.  I, along with the other males, certainly kept my head down and did what I was told.  It was a big process, with primer and texturing and multiple coats of plant, but everyone kept their spirits high throughout.  Jim and Jo, as usual, directed, with Diane, Carol, Cynthia, Patty, Clyde, Gena, and Glenn in particular - though others helped as well - really wearing their shoulders out.  Also, YES has continued to push forward, working on their mission statement and a proposal form to present to the Board.

 YES, clockwise from left: Maelcolm, Margaret, Walker, Nathan, Megan, Jo, Cygne, Sara, Glenn, and Justin.

 Clyde didn't believe that Gena had more paint on her than he did.

 Patty providing a model of fierce determination and focus.

Terrifying.  Absolutely terrifying.

Carol is intense.
I'm always happy to listen to Jo talk, even if she's reading a random page out of an old Western Literature textbook.
