Happy Monday from the Dominican team! We had a hard working day today! We shoveled rocks and sand, hauled water, and made/poured concrete at the church site in the morning. The plan was to go back in the afternoon, but we shifted plans and stayed back to head over to the old camp and mix some more concrete to help with a basketball court that they are making. It was nice for those of us that have been/stayed there to see it again and the work they have been doing and nice for those who had never been there to see the other side of the compound. It was also exciting for some because as most of us that have come before know.... that side has more tarantulas than where we now stay. So, as far as I heard there were 3 large and one baby tarantula caught/seen while doing cement. This prompted some great excitement...good and not so good!
Our team is holding together pretty good wellness wise. I was not feeling well this morning, but some rest after lunch and the Grace of God I woke up refreshed and back to myself. Hailey has quite the rosie nose and cheeks so lathering up more sunscreen tomorrow and aloe lotion tonight to try and help heal that. Our gracious hosts/translators from here, Luchy and Felix have been suffering from some upper respiratory stuff the last couple of days. So please keep them in your thoughts to heal quickly. More to come tomorrow!!
