The Never Ending Tie-Beam

Another beautiful day in Kitale - no rain to speak of. Work continues on the buildings with most of the visible progress being accomplished by the local masons. Team four finally finished the interior tie-beams in building one, both forms and concrete. Halleluya!! Now on to the more challenging building two. The floors in building one are ready for forms but will have to wait for the plastering to be finnished. The kitchen is also ready for the ring-beam.

On a side note, my suitcase finally arrived. It has become a running joke that whenever there was something that we needed but didn't have, someone would say that Tom has one .... but it is in his suitcase. I guess we can't use that excuse now.

Today we left work early, 5:00 pm, for a BBQ at the TI compound with most of the local missionaries and NGO personnel. As usually the food was delicious, especially the goat.
