megan & i began our day today by going to lowes... last week, she & denise went and did some flirting/charming of lowe's people & the building community at a luncheon [aka: hot dogs] they were having. they apparently entered some contest, and megan won a prize! so we went today before site to pick it up. i was SUPER excited to see what she won, and it turned out to be a turf builder seed spreader. it was not at all what we were expecting, but hilarious nontheless.
anyway, we got to site, and finished building the knee walls from yesterday. then we joined the gravel-shoveling group, as there was nothing else to do. we got all the gravel done in the small suite area, and about half of the huge suite area/hallway done. it looks lovely! and shoveling gravel is deceptively painful. and very annoying. sarah & kaytee used the little shark guys to dump the gravel in the room, and we spread it out so it was level. we also had to use the transit A LOT to make sure that each spot is 2" above the footings. it's quite a pain to get it all level, but at the end of the day, robert said he was very impressed with our gravel-filled rooms. yay!
so after we shoveled gravel for 4 hours, we joined the rest of the group to clean up the clubhouse area around it. it has gotten QUITE crazy, and the clubhouse is a mess. this is all in preparation for an "event" tomorrow, that robert has decided to keep a secret. we know that there is food invovled, but megan & i also suspect that important people will be showing up, since we cleaned everything up. so that will be interesting.
