*I will post two today, since I was gone all day yesterday.*
Today we got started as usual. Everyone started by helping to take off the forms of the columns we poured yesterday. Some got started forming the last corners and some got started forming the top of the wall for the solid beam. Another group finished the last column. Before lunch we poured the two columns. After lunch there was a lot of standing around. It was really frustrating at these points, not having anything to do. Once we were able to pour the concrete beam things really moved. Then we had to pour the final column.
I got a sense that we didnt get as far as some would have wanted. We ran into problems with materials. We werent able to get as much done as we would have liked. We hope they are motivated to finish the project. Duane has told us they should have enough money to do so. All of us would love to come back and see the completed job.
Tomorrow we are heading to Santo Domingo. On the way we are going to visit a Christian school. Then we will visit the Ministry Center and a market of some sort.
Tonight was good as we had dinner then walked for ice cream again. It was an okay day, but pretty frustrating.
