Work

Here is my daughter working in the Mission School.
The is the library where Liz and Mackenzie worked. They really enjoyed visiting with the children.
Here is Nicole with Mackenzie. Work or play, not sure.....
One of our projects was to make a futbol (Soccer) field for the kids. Here is Sean with his new friend Jean Paul.
We had to get rid of the rocks, only the bad rocks, the good ones were taken away to make gravel.
We had a little accident, The (pala) shovel won. Not really, it was a small accident, but it didn't slow Sean down. He just kept working.
I told Sean that the girls will love it......And he can get at least 5 years worth of wild stories out of it....he agreed....pretty cool.

Sean, Jean Paul and their workers....
What a team.
The dirt was flying. We enjoyed the kids helping during their recess.
A better picture of the playing field.
We ended up digging a 4 feet deep hole by 10 yards, spread the dirt over the field, and then filled the huge hole up with rocks. Great project.


Then we moved on to break up big rocks into small rocks to be used for gravel for the cement. There is no calling a cement truck. Everything is done by hand.
I think every teen age boy should spend a day or two making gravel out of large rocks. What a humbling experience.
Sean was a great worker. One day My two brothers, Sean and I broke rocks......great bonding. It didn't even get rocky......
Go Tim!
