House and School Build Day 2

Here is Ben taking a break waiting for gas to come for the mixer.  Ben has worked hard mixing concrete for all the posts for the fence.  Way to go Ben!!!

Here is Les teaching a young man how to hammer a nail.  The local kids love to come help with the school even though their help does require much more supervision.  The walls and main beam are up at the school.  Friday morning we will add 8 roof panels and begin to paint and sheet the roof.  It's my hope that the wind is nonexistent today as yesterday's wind gave everything a fine dirt dusting.  Everything is now the colour of of the ground.  Between the huge mud holes we have to drive through and the dust all the vehicles are brown.  Car washes here must do great business trying to keep vehicles clean. 


Here is a picture from the roof of the house toward the school. 

Another great day of building and painting.  We are off to a watch a movie back out at the build.  Not sure what movie we are watching but we have a bunch of popcorn for everyone.  It was hot and windy again today, really windy this afternoon.  We have a peach house on the outside, not sure what colour the inside will be but tomorrow the inside will be painted.  Lots of work still to be done but we will be close to finishing by tomorrow night.
