House 1 had block up to the top of the windows and doors. And houses 2 and 3 have made it to the last row of block, and house 2 started on the gables.
Our help has made the construction much faster than it would have been without us. At least we hope!
The end of the last day of work drew some emotion. At house 1 the mason was so moved that he gave a little talk, and hugs around. And the crew at House 1 came to tears when they wrote the names of which the build is in memorial. They signed their own names as well.
"Ken Petersen, Hans Petersen, Lois Greason"
And the groups that didn't do that plan to as well. Pictures tomorrow...
The last day being special, along with emotions and sentiment, House #3's driver took that group on a hike for some fun. The hike went 20 minutes up to a mountaintop with a 360 view and natural freshwater springs! Pictures tomorrow...
Carol at house 2, embracing Estella, the mother of the house.
It's great to see what we have done in 9 and a half work days. We've gone from sites like this:
To having rooms:
House 2, along with their mason in the blue, and the brother of Estella alongside.
Once again, thanks to all those that have supported and made this trip possible.
In tears here too at the inscription, as the newest Kenneth Petersen bounces away to the rhythm of life across the room. Thanks for sharing all the stories and photos.
