THURSDAY
Got to school (Fuerzas Armadas) early, had a prayer with team and the neighborhood volunteers to get the day started. One thing that's been neat is the number of people who have come to help - men, women and and removed the wood forms from the columns that we formed and poured yesterday. Finished forming the inside columns and poured three of four. Had lots and lots of help from the parents of the children, in fact today was mostly the mothers, and wow, did they work hard today; mixing and hauling concrete; recycling the wood forms that we took down. And their was lots of work preparing to pour the 'viga'.
We always take a one hour lunch break at noon, and today, not long after we got back to the school we had a serious thunderstorm and torrential rain. Held us up for over an hour. Then it was back to work, mixing concrete and pouring. Again, the women helping us worked VERY hard and we got a lot accomplished.
