Stove Building

Monday started the stove building project.  We had a nice meeting with one of the AMA women's circles then got a 20 minute training session teaching us some of the things we needed to know to build stoves.  Turns out we are working 3/4 mile from our hotel.  Quite a juxtaposition- we're in a conference center with WiFi and a wonderful resturant and that close people are living with block rooms with dirt floors, no stove or toilet.

Sarah Horn, Molly Locke and I went to the dirt-floored home of 4 women and a baby.   The girls thought I knew what I was doing- I just kept telling them to do what looked right and check the instruction sheet again.












Our new family.















We should finish it up Tuesday..........


We've been seeing lots of people laughing and talking even if they don't speak the same language such as Thom Horn and his daughter Sarah.
