Newton's Law

Just when we thought a project in motion would stay in motion, we hit another glitch. The workers ran out of sand and gravel at the site. Since BuildOn now controls the funds for the project, we asked them to approve the purchase of more material. That's when we found out that they don't have the funds in hand at this precise moment, and we'll have to wait a week or so for the funds to be transferred and the purchase approved. Meanwhile, the village will get a break from working to go plant their fields as we wait for the next shipment.
So it goes!

From the Ground Up

I can't believe how fast this school is shooting up! We're up to the windows on the first block!







The foundation is finished for the second block, and the walls will start going up later this week.



At this rate, we're very optimistic that it will be totally finished before we leave in November. Keep your fingers crossed!
