Long day of work

There was a lot of work done around camp today. There are a lot of staff members leaving tomorrow because of a wedding so we were trying to get as much done as we could so those of us here over the weekend could just relax for the most part. A few people worked on making a sign post to hold the big sign at the entrance of the camp and it looks really good. Others worked on painting, trimming trees

I chose to work on the waterslide again today because I have had fun doing the work that needs to be done for it. This morning we started working again on making the posts. We had a bit of trouble because our drill battery kept dying. Even with that we had managed to almost get all of the posts done before lunch. After lunch we worked on it some more and had finally finished all the posts and a couple people got cement poured in the holes to fill them and they are now in place.
This is the posts that we were making. 
This was the bottom post. We used the barrel
to support the post while the cement dried.

Then we started placing all the slabs of wood that is the frame of the waterslide down over the track. We secured the frame into the posts that we had made. There is still more work to do on the waterslide, but at the rate we are going it will hopefully be done by Monday.
This is the view of the frame from the top.

Another good bible study tonight. We talked about our faith and deeds. Off to watch another movie. We are continuing our theme and watching Captain America.
