Near Completion








Another beautiful day up at Orkeeswa School. Work is moving well and we are close to finishing the preparations before we finally pour concrete. The group definitely seems to have emerged from a slight mid-trip malaise; spirits are high and GI tracts are improving. Everyone is eagerly waiting for this afternoon when we will have the chance to buy some jewelry from the local Maasai women’s group. This is a terrific way for us to get some gifts for friends and family while also directly helping a group that is so closely related to the school.

Many of the girls carried rocks, both large and small, on their heads among the Maasai women. The interesting sight was caught by Cindy’s great photography on what she dubbed “International Women’s Day.” Overall, the day was filled with laborious work as well as entertainment and excitement as usual! We look forward to finishing with the rocks and progressing towards a finished product.
