Our silence this past month has been due to being extremely busy and being away from internet. At the start of September we went into a serious rush with the construction. We had a group from Indiana coming in a few weeks and we needed them to stay up at the Casa de Esperanza property. We had to get all the walls smooth, the bars put in the windows, the floors poured in a couple weeks, enough bunks made for the group, and working kitchens and bathrooms in place. To put the rush into perspective, there were no floors poured in any of the buildings until the final week. We did rent a little cement mixer to help out, so it didn’t all have to be mixed by hand — a big time saver. The last floor to get poured was the hallway in the first house, which happened the day before the group came. To get all this done in a short time we had to double our Honduran work force and most of them sacrificed to work into the night hours to get things done the last week. The beautiful thing is that we got the basics done enough to host a group there, which was a big relief.
