Some of you may
already know that my wife and I are building a new home on Lake Hartwell.
We have been planning for a while and finally got started last month.
Things are proceeding slowly due to "the weather" and "the COVID",
but some progress is being made. We are thankful that we don't have
any real deadline to move, so we are working hard to enjoy the process.
I came across this article written by a woman who is also
building a home, and her experience has been positive so far. She states
that the workers are delightful and seem to take pride in their work and
actually enjoy their work. It made her start thinking about how our
current society dictates that young adults need to have a college education (or
2 or 3) to make a difference in our world. It seems that we have
boxed out the possibilities of people being successful building, farming or
fixing toilets. Jesus was a carpenter and his disciples were
fishermen. I think her ideas are interesting and true. I would love
to know what you think.
If you clicked on the GettingDeeper link looking for the SpotOnTheLake Water Depth Guide, this ain’t it. This blog gives our lake community, and anyone else that might be interested, a chance to share ideas about things that matter.
