Volunteer day in Akron, Ohio

Our group just had a very interesting day volunteering for Rebuilding Together, an affordable housing organization that focuses on refurbishing the houses of older, less physically able homeowners. I was hoping to post tonight, but it didn't happen, so hopefully I won't lose my fire between now and tomorrow. Here are the photos at least... Also shot two 4x5's I'm stoked on.
