The next crew was there for two weeks. What an entertaining bunch.
 You learn to expect the unexpected. Like pretzels showed up in your sandwich and the coffee had a different flavor added to it.

They did a lot of mudding(some on the wall and some on themselves) and sanding.

 Buy the second week Mark had to hand them off to Trudy to paint.


 For a short time Mark worked with Andy to pull wires for Max.
