We Finally got to drop Miguel in a dark Hole somewhere!

The Cornerstone Six have arrived in full have been promptly put to work all over the compound! Most notably, they have continued digging our well so we can bust through the layer of quartz twenty feet below our feet. We have a twenty fut hole at the bottom of which is a few feet of constantly replenishing water and solid rock with a massive tripod and pulley system above it hauling water and earth out of the depths. It truly resembles an archeological dig out of Indiana Jones. Though Im not there to witness it, Miguel should be being lowered into said hole to do his share of the digging as I type.

On the medical center side of things, we are up to about seven feet on all walls and are a few courses of brick away from pouring our ring beams and then getting the roof going giving us at least a loosely defined building. Add some curtains and a doctor and we have got ourselves a medical center!

We had another worker come to the lord and he attended church with the team for the first time this past Sunday and he most certainly got his fill of scripture as we heard THREE consecutive sermons! Buckle up!

As for the rest of the team, Mark has been invaluable as he has been fixing every door on the compound because the list of doors that actually open and close is rapidly decreasing every day. we determined a cornucopia or reasons why...some of which including all the doors are not square (some not even rectangles) and the hanging was atrocious. Steve, Miguel, Mary-Lou, Janelle, and Danielle have been sieving sand like machines (and none of us have yet to agree on the actual pronunciation of that word), digging out the well, and generally recovering from any number of ailments that have struck in force but, to the best of my knowledge should strike the body with a vengeance but then promptly leave it. We shall see. Barring a well shaft cave-in or violent mutation of a virus they should all be safe in NJ within a week!
