Water project

 A change of pace today as we visited a secondary school where we can install water for the students and the community. We had a great chat with the school committee and the representatives of the neighbours. They were all there to greet us by 9 am and have everything in place. Nixon will start digging this weekend and it should be ready for handover at the start of the new school year in January. We plan to run a pipe to the kitchen area behind the school buildings. It never fails to touch me at how much the gift of clean water can mean to people. Yes, they still have to carry it and it's a far cry from turning on the tap in the kitchen, but it will mean so much in terms of time and health.
