Today started out with electricity and then quickly became without electricity.  Its kinda funny now because when the power goes out, you hear groans and yells from all over the lodge.  At least we could see to eat. 

We did the usual sardine ride in the van.  i missed the picture of the guy selling chickens on the corner.  I'll try to get it tomorrow.

Once we were at the build site, we started carrying the lumber out to assemble the shelves for the library.

Glazing windows continued... we did finally get all the windows in today, as did playing with the kids.  I broke out a new ball today... an orange spiked ball that bounced really good.  That was a hit!

Everyone was busy cleaning the writing off of the windows, moving dirt around the foundation and leveling the final grade... and assembling shelves.

Once the shelves were done, Grant, Cristi and I headed into town to get some items.  Lawrence took us to a VERY interesting part of town.  We had to gather supplies for the dedication which is at 10am tomorrow.

We walked through fish markets, caged chickens for sale, all sorts of stuff... it was awesome, especially if you held you nose.  Just watch the movie Slumdog Millionaire and you'll have a good idea of what this place was like.  :)

 I hate to cut this short... but the internet cafe is closing.... 
Tomorrow is the big day, we get to dedicate the library!!!  I will try to post more tomorrow.

Love you all, keep the prayers going and dont forget your conversations with God.
