The "Goop-i-Nator"

-I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before… but it is hot. In the shade the work is not to hard but the sun just beats you down and keeping hydrated has been an important preoccupation of us all. So today we completely finished the back two buildings, including sealing them with a black smearable substance we call “goop.” The goopiNator, Nate, has become quite adapt at applying the goop.

-Meanwhile, Phil and Julia headed to a nearby school to teach the children and staff about clean water with Steven as a translator (from English to You). The education revolved around sanitation and the importance of handwashing. To keep the kids entertained, they performed two skits. In one, Julia was sick and then handled water. Phil then drank from the same water and then received the same sickness that Julia had. The children and teachers were really attentive, having numerous good questions following the educational workshop.

-With the west side of the main building completed, we started on the eastside. The lattice work went up and we were able to make some good progress, marking out and attaching all of the brackets required to hang the gutters.
