Day 1 | Adison Garavaglia

After two long days of traveling, we finally made it to Rockport, Texas! It was a long trip, but the company made it all worth it. Today, we worked on a house along the beach, painting and putting up cabinets. I was taught a new way to use a roller to paint a wall and possibly got a little loopy on paint fumes, but it was a fun day. Many good conversations were had, and I learned a little more about the others I was working with. There’s something about looking out at the ocean view from a beach house, covered in paint and surrounded by good people, that made my first day working on a Samaritan’s Purse trip even better and more satisfying.
