Today was our final day to build before moving in. Our house is not completely finished yet, but definately at a point where we can move in (good thing too since we don't have a choice). The outside plastic and the inner walls are all stapled in place. David also finished up working on our door. So, our house is pretty much closed in now and hopefully will do a good job keeping critters out! Tomorrow, we move in. We have to carry all our belongings up on foot. This is a day we have been dreading, hopefully it's not as bad as we think. We can spend the first few days finishing up our houses with anything else we want to add. We'll be up there for 4 weeks learning how to live in a place without modern conviniences, fellowshipping with our classmates, and we'll also have some extra work we need to do that will be similar to what it would be like learning a language. We will have no internet, so our only way to communicate is through good ol' snail mail!

Hi Rachel, You probably don't remember meeting me. I work part-time at the TV station w your mom. She told me to check out your site. It is so awesome! Your pics are so good and interesting from canning meat to building stoves and showers and jungle huts! And your beautiful little boy! What you guys are doing w New Tribes to spread the Word is wonderful! Good luck w the critters and weather and roughing it! All my kids went to Bible college but they didn't have the fun you're having. I'm telling them to check you guys out. God bless you!
