No more mañanas to report!
(well, for a good while anyway :)
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,
to them who are called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28
(I like an interpretation of this I came across: "A pillow for the weired soul")
This will be a super-fun time when we finally see the footprint of the Clinic and can wander the floorplan.
There are many points to be located, so this will take several days.
Wood has been delivered and is being prepped to be used to form the perimeter of the platea.

Security cameras have been set up on the site so we can keep a close eye on activity and materials.
Lighting is in place for the night guard, including an inverter we purchased from a 2nd Pres Roanoke family who owns an inverter company here in the DR.

| Maximus has endured many issues in his short life so far and so we thought it fitting that he be named after an enduring, persistent character. (kinda fits the clinic building process now that I think about it!) |
Several truckloads of 40' rebar are scheduled to arrive late Tuesday or Wednesday. This will be used to make up the 89 columns, each requiring 10 pieces of 1/2" rebar and a great deal of "cages" that hold the 1/2" in place. Of course, the entire platea will have two grids of rebar, each tied 15cm apart.
At last.

.... don't even THINK of stopping your prayers ...
