Another great day

We had another great day in Zambia, very productive. The digging of the footers for Amber and Jako’s new house was finished today, tomorrow the runs to go get sand will start, and the next day concrete will be poured. We’re having a special guest for dinner tonight (a goat, yummy). The bunk beds for the orphanage got started today too, the lumber comes to us pretty rough, so the wood has to be planed, cut, and ripped. Surprisingly, there aren’t many Home Depots around the corner, go figure. Everyone is healthy, energized, and working hard, but it goes without saying that we’re all exhausted at the end of the day.

Enjoy the pictures.
