Today started off pretty slow; but, ended with a big round of success. Chris asked us the make sure we packed paint roller covers. I bought 30 of them from Lowes today along with some duct (I got the real stuff, not that duck stuff!) tape to reseal any of the tool caddies we would need to open up.
Gary and I met at the church tonight for a little rearranging of the supplies in the team bags. Our mission was to get the Kites-On-A-Roll packed up. Gary was dissappointed to find out that his piec of luggage was only 30 inches long and we needed 38 for the rolls. We called Curt who had emailed me earlier that he had a couple of boxes that may help out. I drove over to his place and picked up a box that was 46 inches long and total dimesions of 61 inches. It worked perfectly. Thanks Curt! We were able to get the 3 rolls of kites in it along with 19 paint roller covers. We rearranged the other team bags so that 7 more paint rollers were packed up. Gary placed the last 6 in his bag. (Yes, I can do the math that there were 32 roller covers packed up. There were 2 roller covers in the window, when combined with the 30 covers I purchased today that makes a total of 32. If it wasn't bolted down, we packed it!) The items in the plastic tote with no wheels were consolidated into the two suitcases I borrowed from my sister. We have everything packed up in 11 team bags, each weighing less than 65 pounds! There are 2 corragated boxes, 5 mobile tool caddies and 4 suitcases. Each team bag is numbered with its weight recorded on the number tag. Everything is now ready for Gary and Troy to pick them up and transport them to the airport on Thursday. Praises to God!
I will have to get out an email tomorrow to the team with the check-in plan for us to follow once we arrive at the airport Thursday. What can I say, teamwork! And with God on your side, how can you not expect it to get done?
