What a day to remember

Today was the first day of official work. Our group was suppose to be painting, but things did not go as plan. When we got to the site, the home owner had wanted to make some changes, which made us had to go to another site to do our service. We were moved to a new location. When we got to that house, I was amazed by how big and beautiful the house was. We contributed by clearing the backyard. We took bricks, garbage's, unused materials, and pack all of it in the dumpster. Next, we moved along to our second house. At this new location, we mowed the lawn, cut grass, and made the front of the house look decent. It took a lot of work, but our group was able to work together and complete the task within two to three hours. After today, I am proud of what our group was able to do. We have started something that another group can continue to help build New Orleans. I am looking forward to tomorrow because we will get the opportunity to paint the original house that we were suppose to be working on. After today's hard work, I am prepared for what is laid ahead for tomorrow.
