Today is Thursday and it was a productive day. On day one we laid pipe to the main road, roughly 300 metres. We had to go through a bunch of trees and under the main highway. After many trouble shooting scenarios, our gang - led by Larry (from Okotoks) - saved the day. The electrician knows his stuff; without him we would be stuck.
The villagers have helped immensely and we are making great progress, we're probably 50% of way done. It's very humid - my shirt was absolutely soaked within an hour!
We have met some great locals and had a lot of fun so far in our attempt to make a difference.
