| By Wednesday, October 29, a great deal of progress had been made on this project. The outside walls were completed, inside framing was nearly done,the trusses for the roof were up, and the roofing was being installed. You may notice some young faces in the pictures. 6 young men from Indiana were working this week, and they really knew what they were doing, and they did it hard and fast! | ||
