Grace CMA

The project that I'm working on with MGA for this two week trip is Grace Christian and Missionary Alliance Chuch. Grace CMA's new building will seat around 1500. Because we're waiting on some key areas to be drywalled and painted, we left a little early today, but we've typically been starting around 2 pm and working until around 2 am. The other guys say that next week we'll be starting later and working later, in order to get it all finished. We've been slightly held up in a lot of areas since the whole project has been just slightly behind schedule (or so it seems to me).

Monday to Wednesday were mostly filled with pulling cable in conduit. Today we had a shorter day pulling some easier intercom lines, and starting to assemble some racks.

Aside from the actual work itself, one aspect of this trip that I didn't quite expect (though it should have been obvious in hindsight) has been the food. We've been eating at a different restaurant for every meal. The other guys are so used to it that nobody cares any more so it's a chore just to pick a place and go. MGA provides a decent per diem, so thankfully we stay away from fast food for the most part. I'm sure eating out will get old for me too, but for now it's nice to have a lot of variety.
