Canaan - Eryl's Mother - Photos - Part 2


One of the guys using a machete to cut the pole down to size.


Jn. Eddy, supervising the work.


The roof frame being formed.


Working together at building the frame.


Mackary nailing in the supports.


This is a typical temporary roof form.


More poles were added to support the roof.


Done. Now the supports will be put in place.


A landscape view towards the main road. Lots of room for expansion :)


The guys are building the wall frames.


Placing the poles.


Tarps for the side walls and roof.


A close up of the roof frame.


Placing the supports.


Using a bucket as a stool.


View of the surroundings.


Mackary getting some drinking water.


The neighbors built a weaved fence.


Raising the roof!


Lining up the roof with the support poles.


Nailing the roof to the supports.


Good thing it wasn't a windy day :)


Once everything is nailed and the tarps laid over the supports the structure is secure.


Eryl is a good son. He loves his mother and wants to help her.


Teamwork to nail the supports!


A human step ladder and a bucket stool makes just the right height to reach the top of the supports.


Mackary, the human ladder ;)


It is good to see how the guys improvised and problem solved their predicament of not having a ladder.


The house frame taking shape.


The guys are proud of what they built.
