Something that I've done that has made me proud was helping my uncle restore an old barn on his property. He is going to use it as a banquet hall for his restaurant business. It's a very long, beautiful barn built in the 1840's. I helped nail boards down on the side and painted all sides. Now this barn was more than 30 feet tall. I had to get on a huge ladder and paint with a roller and brush. It was really tough work. I tend to do a lot of work whenever I go visit my family because there's always something that needs fixing, restoring, or cleaning. You could say that it helps build character...because it really does. I bonded with my aunt and uncle and worked my arms to the point that I couldn't lift them at night. Painting is a real work out. But I'm proud that I helped and now it looks beautiful. The barn is about half way done being restored and I'm so excited to see the finished product!! :)
