Build Day: Cincinnati-ish OH/KY

I don't really know where we are, but we rolled in just outside of Cincinatti OH yesterday in the rain after a short ride with a detour into Coney Island. Fun times were had by all. 2 bikes were damaged. 6 bikes were repaired. And then today, we built. 

Our site today had all of the fun work left to be done. I spent the morning on the roof with Prechter, Blake, and Big Bear (Peter). Toward the end of the day, work was running slim so I fell asleep on some scaffolding (partially to let others have fun jobs, and partially because I am not responsible enough to remember to eat/hydrate well on days we aren't on bikes.) The pres of the local habitat and his wife came to provide lunch and speak with us midway through the day (pictures below). Friends spent their days putting the porch together, insulating and dry walling the house, and doing a ton of other fun things with saws and hammers. Tonight, we had a ton of dinner provided and then our dinner crew put on a pretty ballin presentation for our hosts, community members, and some alums who were in town. 

All in all, a good visit to wherever we are. State line again tomorrow. (Technically twice as we go back into OH to get to IN). 93 miles. Best one yet.
