Sunday - con't

We got started on the sign after lunch the wind died down and the Sun was blocked by a building. Imagine a 3 foot circle cut in the Rotary Logo being taped onto the side of a heavy stucco building. It took 3 of us, 2 to hold each section and one (me ) to dab the paint onto the stucco. We all had blue hands - of course it was oil based paint! We enjoyed ourselves with lots of laughs and we were photographed by several people and provided entertainment to others. Unfortunately the paint ran down the side of a few of the "stucco hills" so the sign needs a few touch ups.

The masons have finished the parging of the house and walls to protect the bricks and fill in some holes. The clay bricks here are very soft and do not stand up to the rain with being covered.

The others had a good time at church but they did see alot of people who look ill and poorly fed. There is alot that can be done here but it is hard to know where to start. We hope that the library and sports equipment will help feed their minds and give them a few other options to enjoy their lives.
