Will it be done?

That is the million dollar question!  Sunday afternoon is the deadline.  5th and 6th graders will be arriving (5o I believe) and ready to move in to our first lodge at Big Canyon.  We have called "All Hands on Deck" in full force.  We have volunteers all over the place working their hearts out.  We have also hired a few men to finish the tile and lay the carpet.  We are still optimistic.  Things won't be 100% done but we are hopeful to have it livable.  Here are some pics.  What do you think?  Will we get 'er done?

A bedroom with carpet in it.  (Did I mention that it is still in a roll)

2 of the 8 showers tiled.    Doors on the toilet stalls. No handles, yet.

The vanity sinks and the tile supplies.

 

Oh My! Where is Ty (the home-makeover guy) and ABC when you need them!!!!

The good news is that the railings are going in, the carpet is being laid, the tile should be done in 3 bathrooms (there are 4), the base and case is getting finished, the toilets, faucets and showerheads are going in, the bunkbeds are ready to be put in as soon as the carpet is laid, we have water, and we have power.  What more do we really need?  Let me answer that for you, Sanity!

Even though it is crazy, it is exciting.  Please be praying for all of the groups that will be staying at Big Canyon this summer.  Pray they will be drawn to our Savior and have a full understanding of who He is and what He has done for them.
