There has been progress on the well! Yesterday, Roger (the “master of work” as the
Nicas say) and I went to the community to see how construction was going.

Roger measured and it appears to already been 3 meters deep
so only another 2 to go! I’m hoping they’ll
strike water by the New Year and we can do the water test shortly after. Then, if the water doesn’t have arsenic, we
should receive the funds to buy the materials in February! Roger did scare me when he said our budget will
be tight. Guess we’ll have to wait and
see. But if any of you find yourself
with some extra cash in February, let me know!
Tomorrow I'm hosting a holiday party for the PCVs that live nearby. I'm preparing cheese, salami, crackers, pizza bagels and chocolate cake with, of course, wine and rum. Feel free to stop on by!
