Finished with the school


We finished the work we had planned for this trip on Suzanna's school. We fixed water leakage problems, put a coating of latex waterproof paint on the entire inside and outside and got the windows put on. YAY! It is looking great, the boys may be able to start school there soon, how great that would be for them.

I am still working on learning the Dominican way, it is a bit different than American logic. It seems frequently symptoms are treated rather than the problem. It takes a lot for us gringos to get what is seen as the solution. I do appreciate the daily siesta though.

Time is flying by here, and so much has happened. Tomorrow is my last full day with the boys and then on Friday we have a half day with them. Our flight leaves at 6am on Saturday morning, so it is looking like we will have to catch a taxi at midnight on Friday and spend the night in the airport. Many more adventures are ahead, and I am pumped.
