Day Six

Church House & White House

As we move towards the end of our time here, the jobs we have for ourselves get more diverse, most of them small projects. The work at Martha's Table continues for one of our groups. The other group is now "groups." Work here at the church building included replacing ceiling tiles, making kits for visitors on Sunday mornings, re-painting lines in the parking lot, computer work and the regular interactions with the afternoon kids who come by.

As groups went through the day, we made sure we were in line at the White House security for our two scheduled tours, late morning, and afternoon. Neither fancy nor in-depth, once we got into the White House, ropes and very friendly guards guided us through long hallways on the ground floor, with peeks into various rooms. Once on the first floor, we went from the East to the West, and then out the front door. Next time, the West Wing. Next time, the living quarters!

Then back to work, with promises of a huge chunk of free time tomorrow if we work hard now. We really liked the taste of THAT carrot!
