construction

While living in the UAE I discovered something new about myself.  I really like watching the progress of construction.  There was a housing unit going up when I moved there, and after I got married, we were supposed to move there in three months.  I was weekly going to the house to see if there were any significant changes.  Of course, not much typically changes in a week, and there were a lot of problems with this project and it was significantly delayed. In fact, we never got to move in as it finished just as we were leaving the UAE.

Fortunately, the CURE hospital has many projects going up here in Kijabe, so I get to watch the changes!  But even more fun than that, we are supporting a school down in the valley, and a new 5-classroom building is going up.  And thankfully the progress so far is much smoother and faster!

And on September 4, 2010:

As you can see, big changes!  Construction on this building should be finished by the 15th, then they'll move on to some other projects.  Many more stories and photos of this special school will come.  In the meantime, check out the website for Gentle Bells.
