After all the setbacks of the last
few days (malaria, John leaving), we had an amazing day today. We were able to do work on 2 houses, with
great success. The previous day, we had
toured the town to see different gutter systems already in place. We drew inspiration from these to create a
successful gutter installation today.
The look on Maama Mwanika’s face when she saw the water come out of the
gutters was incredible! It’s been great
to experience the gratitude of the villagers as they see tangible work
progress. We have received gifts of eggs,
ground nuts and avocados from the clusters.
How sweet!
We are hoping to finish the
remaining gutters tomorrow, and rework the gutters on Winnie Nampijia’s house
soon. On Sunday we plan to adventure
into Masaka for the majority of construction process for the rest of the
summer. Miss everyone back home!
