I've always looked up to tall people. They stand head and shoulders above me.

In past journal posts I've referred to Big Matt and Little Matt, both members of our crew. Big Matt is called that in reference to his larger stature compared to Little Matt. Little Matt is taller than I by a small margin. I look up to him too.

Today as Big Matt continued applying primer to the walls and ceiling in the new house I suddenly realized just how tall he is. As I watched Matt paint I suddenly noticed the fiberglass pole laying on the ground. Big Matt was reaching up to the nine-foot-two ceiling - without standing on his tippy toes. That is quite the stretch!

Matt is doing a great job on the paint. Thanks for reaching above and beyond!
