Before everyone jumps on me for confusing the Tennessee Vols with the Alabama Crimson Tide...give me a minute to explain. Almost anyone from SEC (Southeastern Conference, not Securities and Exchange Commission) country knows that "Vols" is short for "Volunteers", and this post is a celebration of volunteerism, more specifically volunteerism in Alabama, and even more specifically volunteerism in Alabama as it has benefited Whitney. :) Certain people have sacrificially given of their time to help me revive Whitney. So without further adieu, please help me pay tribute to the Alabama Vols:
Sandy: This legendary Ultimate Frisbee player has been out to work on Whitney more times than any other Vol. To top it off, she has been helping while injured.
Dad: Yes, my father came down (with a carload of recruits, i.e., kids) to help out with Whitney for a weekend. Family is great! My dad knows what he is doing too, so I was able to set him up building walls upstairs, while I worked downstairs.
Sarah: My sister Sarah worked so hard you would have thought she was in a race. On top of all of her manual labor on the house, she also fixed lunch.
Jonathan: It is hard to believe that my brother Jonathan is a teenager now and able to do as much as he can.
Josiah: Josiah is my youngest brother, and he was a real help as well. I'm glad we got a chance to work together.
My hat's off to you!

Thanks for the mention. I really did enjoy working on the house. I'm all for helping some more when you come into town to work on it. Preferrably when it is not 106 degrees with a 115 heat index though. Good luck with law school.

law school?
