Project on Tanna in full swing

Karl’s day started later than planned… I don’t know why I bother to say that, it happens EVERY day. I’ll let photos tell the day’s events...

Loading up components from the stock pile. Pastor Tomas’ house in back ground.

The church that sits on the other side of the stock pile of components.

Pathfinder club learning to tie knots… using string, rope, telephone wire, coaxial cable, electrical wire, homemade banana fiber rope, you name it.

The facilities for pastor’s house

A quick stop to fuel up at the local gas station - self-starting siphoning to get it in your tank.

On the way

Volunteer work force

Assembling trusses

Local ladies provided meal they prepared over wood cook fires in the school’s cafeteria at mid-day.

First truss is up using new scaffolding.

Using the last daylight to get purlins on for bracing. All self-respecting ni-Van quit work by 4:30pm... Karl talked them into an extra hour and a half so the structure would be adequately braced.

Fellow workers leave Karl off at our lodging and head home.
