Repair Affair!

Today was Repair Affair! Repair Affair is a part of my freshman first year experience class, called "First Class." Every group has a day where we get to go out to a person's house and help build whatever they need. We worked with a company called Kentucky Heartland Outreach, which is kind of like Habitat for Humanity. All of us got on a bus around 8:30 A.M., and we headed toward this old woman's house in Greensburg, about 10 miles away. We worked on building her a deck and a new set of stairs, because hers were old and apparently she had trouble getting down them. Today, I also got to try several things I had never done before. I used a sledgehammer, hammer, AND a table saw. It was a day of firsts for me haha. By the end of the day, the woman had a new deck and set of stairs on her house! It was really fun to hang out with my first class group, and it was nice to be able to help someone out.
