Heading out for a week

[Orkybash]

Hey all, just thought I'd let you know that I'm gonna be gone next week. I'm going on a school trip to Santa Fe with Habitat for Humanity. Anyway, save me a seat here, K? :thumbs:

[Little Devil]

Have a good time, we will ahve to stop Illuvatar from deleting you in his purges of inactive users!!! (;

[Adunauriel]

We sure will, we don't want to lose Orkybash....;) :thumbs:

[Orkybash]

Well, I'll only be gone for a week, so I doubt I'll be purged. Just wanted you guys to know that I didn't up and abandon y'all!

Thanks for all the well-wishes, now it's time for me to pack and go to bed! (I gotta be at the airport at 4:15 tomorrow... *bleh*)

Habitat for Humanity, what a great thing to do. Please tell us about it when you return.

wow...i was away for something like 5 days (possibly 4...can't remember) and there are so many new posts! lol

i didn't go away intentionally...just didn't have any time at all cos i have a french exchange and we've been doing loadsa stuff with some of my freinds who also have french partners. I've literally only been home long enough to sleep! lol

Bon voyage. Have a good one. See you next week.

Lucky guy. lol

I'm back! *plops down in his chair*

The trip was great, way better than I expected in fact! We basically worked on two houses - built a retaining wall at one, and poured concrete steps at the other along with a whole bunch of miscellaneous things (I personally worked on installing cabinets - tedious work but very rewarding... except for when we had to tear out an entire row because they weren't positioned right!) We also got a lot of time to explore Santa Fe, which was cool, but obviously most of our time was taken up by building. I''ll see if I can get some pics uploaded to the photo forum!

So yeah, it was really fun, but I gotta say that it's great to be back!

Did you get to meet the families you were building for?
