House 1 is the location where the property is cut into the hillside. And house 3 is the house where in order to get materials to the site they have to be hiked in- but there are 2 masons.
After work some of us headed to the Toto Market. We were the only gringoes around, and we could tell. But the people were incredibly nice, and loved to talk. Linda was our socializer extraordinaire, chatting with everyone in the city. Some of the people recognized the name Habitat, and understood what we were doing.

Tomorrow we are all going to House 3 in order to assist them in getting all the materials to the house. Otherwise their work would only consist of lugging block up a hillside.
Until tomorrow.
Peace.
