Entertaining Morning

Entertaining morning. I have told you about the house where they cut down the tree and then made charcoal. When that was completed they dug the deep hole and then started building a cinderblock house. Over the last week they have been preparing to pour the roof by putting up panels of wood and lots of rebar. Trees have been cut down from somewhere and have been placed in the house from floor to ceiling to support the weight while concrete being poured and today is the big day. By 6 am a crowd had gathered to start the process and another crowd just to watch. They mix the concrete on the ground and then pass it up the ladder assembly line style to a wheelbarrow on the roof and then start pouring. Amazing to watch and some really hard work. Very noisey night last night as Carnival wound down. Little parades off and on during the day as different groups finished celebrating. I have been asked several times about Mardi Gras in US and told them have never been. They were surprised we don't celebrate everywhere like they do. Now I can say have celebrated Mardi Gras. Grace and peace be with you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Thessalonians 1:2

Joyfully,

Barbara
