Rainy days make for muddy work

The rainy season has been in full swing lately, and it has made for some very muddy construction workers! The other day it was so rainy that a lot of the crew did not show up, so our staff stepped up! They are such troopers, and everyone from the front desk to the gardeners rolled up their pants and started moving dirt before guests arrived. They are such amazingly hard workers and they were happy to help us out. We had a massive pile of dirt and sand in the driveway, and they moved way more than half of it to the back where it needed to be! It was very messy, and I was constantly afraid someone would slip in the mud pit/driveway, but they were laughing and smiling the entire time.

Pehn, who works at the front desk, covered in mud with his dirt carrying tool, and still as smiley as ever!
Srey Leak and Rath still happy even though they have been moving dirt all day
These were the piles towards the end of the day. This is less than half of what was delivered...it was a long day!

And now that we are in day 2 of no rain (!!!) we have a lot of construction workers back in action! Brick walls are appearing left and right, roofs are looking more complete, and rooms are actually taking shape. Hopefully the rain can hold off during the day so we can continue with this progress!

This is the field directly behind the existing rooms. It rained quite a bit last week.

  1. We miss you all! The progress looks really good, I can’t wait to see it finished. Sending lots of happy thoughts & love from Okinawa. Aviva, Craig & Mia.

  2. Thanks Aviva! Hopefully you all can come back again when the rooms are finished to check them out in person! I would still love to see any of the photos you took while you were here too. Are there any on your site yet?
