Well there is no more mud as it has been some hot! We haven’t seen any rain since arriving which has been great for building but it can be stifling at the work site and trying to sleep at night. All went well today on the building site. The back and side outer walls are now ready for the ring beam (cement on the top layer of bricks to reinforce the walls and roof). The inside walls are coming along nicely and most are ¾ of the way competed. Some door frames were inserted and tomorrow they are planning on starting on the window frames. Needless to say it is starting to look like a fine duplex. Dr. Brooks arrived to bring out some supplies and will join us for the evening. Everyone here says hello and prays you are all doing well. The wind has just picked up as I am writing this and it has cooled things down some, I hope it keeps up.
