My Old Kentucky Home

November 5
McCreary County, KY

As you can probably guess by the title I've moved back to KY, commiting for a year of volunteer service with the Christian Appalachian Project, and reuniting with my old housing crew leader Kevin B., and former Mt. Vernon housemate Kristi. I'm staying in the newly built McCreary Volunteer House, which is quite an improvement over the trailer I lived in my first term here. The salon I was working at in Idaho Falls closed Oct. 26th, and there was very little business at the nail salon, so I decided to get the hell outta Dodge before the snows set in. I had an uneventful drive across the country (which is a good thing) arriving here Friday evening. I started my first day of work today, finishing some underpinning on a house trailer, putting a metal roof on a porch addition, and coating the trailer roof with sealer. It was almost like I'd never left.
