News From Mexico X
As you will see from the photos work continues.
After a run to Home Depot (yes there is one in Ensenada now) to purchase all the electrical supplies we wired both the small room and the big room as well as the stairwell.
We heaved and hoed all the "made in Mexico by gringos" trusses up onto the walls and began to assemble the roof. This first picture is a view from above the large room.
This is the view of the large room from below.
We also hung all the wall sheetrock in the small room.
Our plan for tomorrow is to hang the wall sheetrock in the large room and finish the roof in the small room. Once the trusses and deck is in place we can nail on the laminate and turn it over to the workers here.
Jess gave the class tonight and I got to interpret. Always a difficult chore to speak through a translator. Someone said it’s like kissing your wife through a screen door. I’m not sure if it’s true or not as I have never kissed your wife through a screen door.
Fantastic job! God has energized this crew to get er done. Must be a great view from the top.
I looked out our screen door but there wasn’t a wife there, just an old cat looking for a place to sleep in away from the rain.
Blessings my friend
Looks good … way too good for the houses we’ve built in San Felipe!!
I’m truly impressed by all that you and the rest are accomplishing. More prayers for health, safety, protection, and a safe trip home when done.
The old cat could probably have used a hug, at least!
