USA Build Microsoft House - milestone complete 3/7/2009 - SHIP IT!

Hola mi peeps,

Thanks to the work you did, the US Prefab has reached RTM. Chris has lots of pics and video, but sent me the 2 teasers attached.

There was a over 40 people, including kids close to 50. Holy Guacamole!

There were Microsoft people I didn't know, and others that brought friends and family along with them. Pouring Out Hope provided us a crew and Lambs Elsinore let us use the facilities. We had a great lunch of Tortilla soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. The trailer was loaded and roll'n to my house by 2:30.

Our foreman was "Jay Harvey" from POH and his wife hosted lunch! I saw a few repeat and 3peat attendees looking like leaders out there including Ken and his friend Mike that showed early and jumped on the framing and others like Ron and Chris. Richard had a trim crew going too for the windows (that's windows not Windows), and there were lots of crews of people organized into small groups hammering, hoisting and shimmying. Ron brought his toolchest which included his arm extenders, board stretcher and also his left handed crescent wrench which all came in handy. Lanie brought Krispy cream.. which reminds me..the ladies, OMGosh – there were as many women as men (as there should be) and they were bust'n a move (outpaced me 2:1 anyway).

So this is a big FAT thank you from your big PHAT host. ;)

I'll send some details soon for the upcoming Mexico trip on 3/28 where we finish this off.

Ad-i-os,

Thanks,

Eric
