We built this city on rock and roll

[fleurdesel]

Who: Adele LeBlanc, Derek Bliss, gawkers, assistants, and whoever wants to help or mock
What: Building a beach house (not actually on the beach)
When: June 12th - 15th
Where: The Beach
Summary: A house is built, there's a bonfire at night and food provided for those that helped.
Rating: PG-13 for potential language

[After a brief posting the day before on the journal network mentioning the construction project, it's location, and offering a meal in return for work, Adele assists Derek in moving the supplies they've collected since picking the site and in the initial set up. Knowing little to nothing of construction she follows his lead every step of the way, breaking off only to set up water or a quick meal for them in between shifts of planing wood, cutting trim and hammering nails.

It takes time to get it built, but the end of each work day is met with a small or large bonfire, a hot meal, and cool drink.

And at the end there may very well be a house.]

"I'll take it then!" As though he wouldn't have, otherwise. "Though I've a secret to tell you. A secret about sandwiches."

"Is that so?" Passing over the sandwich she takes a seat by him and sets the glass in the sand for him to take.

"Peanut butter," he whispered -- a rather strange, seductive tone in his voice. "And jelly."

Her lips twitch into a smile and she tries hard not to laugh. Instead she returns this secret with a conspiratorial nod and whispers, "Ah yes, I am well familiar with them."
