Day 3 & 4

Sorry but internet was bad yesterday so I didnt get to update this blog. The guys (all 5 of them including Redgi, James, Mr Alvarez, Ron and Robert) have been super busy building and designing things at the Center. Yesterday we ran some errands and got some supplies but today they worked, worked, worked. There are now curtain rods hung so curtains can divide the rooms. Dividing screens have been built to separate the rooms into two. Door knobs have been replaced on two doors. Tomorrow they hope to work on water (pipe and pump replacement/repair) and a shed (building one).  We also took material to a local man who sews ro get him to make the curtains. I am anxious to see what he comes up with from us just explaining it to him. 

Here are a few photos...

  1. It's looking great!! Love the picture with Anderson. I bet Ron's creole is getting better working with Mr. Alvarez. Ron has a knack for communicating with Haitians, even with the language barrier!
