The house is done...for now

The surgical team from Light of the World arrived on Sunday and so far, with a few exceptions, things seem to be running smoothly.  The team headed to the hospital early yesterday morning to start taking care of "lumps and bumps", as they call them. While they were gone, we had a valve burst under the kitchen sink so water was spewing all over the place.  Then we found the cistern wasn't pumping water correctly, so I spent the rest of my day monitoring that and helping some local boys hoist water onto the roof to fill the cistern with.  What a tiring day!  But all seems to be better today.  We're planning on showing them to Ti Denn's tonight, a Haitian bar down by the river owned by a friend of ours. Here are some pictures of the finished project for now.  We have many more improvements to make (like a fresh coat of paint all over the place) but those will come with time.  In true Haitian style, we're as far as we can go with the funding we have right now.
