We are back in Tanzania now. We had a good trip out. Just wanted to send you a few action photos of the construction of the community center. The walls are done, now. The shots below are the pouring of the second “ring beam”. It is a steel rebar reinforced concrete beam that circles the entire building. Also notice the vertical concrete columns.

Blessings,
Lowell
