RAMP

1000 miles from home, today we helped one woman leave her house to tend her flowers. This is what RAMP does by building handicap access ramps for those who need wheelchair access in and out of their homes. Finishing our 9 foot ramp in one day was incredibly satisfying and rewarding, especially after meeting the woman who was planning on using the ramp. She was extremely appreciative of our hard work and was very kind to all of us. Sam even wrestled a thorny rose bush to build the ramp. But it was worth it in the end. Ani was awesome on the circular saw and router, too.
