Phase Final

I think we sweat more today than all the other days put together.  The temperature was high; the work environment was dirty; surprises lengthened the work; just a typical work day in Haiti.

Phase two was the demolition of four ceiling panels.  The panels came down; dust clouds filled the air; all kinds of fuzzys and termite rotted wood covered the floor and us; and we uncovered an active termite nest.  We discovered that significant termite damage had occurred beyond the area we had first identified.

Phase three was the replacement of the damaged panels and battens.  All four of the initially identified panels have been replaced and most of the battens are on.  The remaining battens will be put on after additional panels have been replaced.

Tomorrow we're scheduled to take the Wesleyana to Ortlip; we should be on the mainland by noon.
