The Master Craftsman


To those of you who believe I have no construction ability whatsoever, let me offer evidence to the contrary. In the first shot, I am nailing siding to the dining area in one of the soon to be opened houses at Las Palmas Refugio. Each house will be home to ten children.








This is the gate and wall entrance to the orphanage at Las Palmas Refugio. (There are no actual pictures of me laying brick but I did, on the right hand side. Masons everywhere are sighing a breath of relief I only slung mortar one day!)

We put a beautiful four rail wooden fence along the road to the homes at Las Palmas Refugio. Here I am tamping down the dirt in a post hole under the watchful eye of my patron, Steve Meek.
