Today ws the
last day of work for
Tim's team. They will be leaving around noon tomorrow.
Carly,
Anna, and
Jen decided to work with
Gordon at the new
seminary construction site, so I joined them for the day. We transported three truck loads of
paint,
roofing materials, tiles, and lots of other
heavy stuff. During the day, we were joined by
Neil, a construction consultant from Washington DC. He just arrived today, and he'll be working here for
2 months working with Gordon.
Gordon is one of the long-term
missionaries here, and he works for the
construction project. I had always heard that he
changes his shirt several times a day because he
sweats so much, so it was fun to see him actually go through
5, 6, or 7 t-shirts today.
Jen claims to have
hyperhidrosis (i.e. she sweats a lot, too), so she went through couple shirts during the day as well. I also sweat a lot today, but I just wore
scrubs, and let myself dry on the back of the truck as we went back and forth from the old compound to the construction site. I wish I could just wear scrubs
everyday for the rest of my life. It makes life so much
simpler. Anyhow it was a good
work out.
After dinner we played a few
games (hand tapping game, dutch blitz), and hung out in Laura's room. There were 10 of us
running around her room posing for
pictures (thanks to self-timing multiple shutter), and at one point we all got on her
bed and accidentally
broke it. Fun times. I'm really going to miss them all tomorrow.
