The last day on the job for all of us as the house is more or less complete. Here are the four paid workers posing in front of the house. The three on the right are brothers, the youngest on the right is only 16 and he works full time. It does not seem like he wants to go back to school ever. The last day was pretty fun although it was still a lot of work trying to get everything finished on time. The whole house took only four weeks to finish, but the owners will have to do the finishing touches like painting, wiring, and getting the water hooked up.

Monday I leave Xela for other parts of Guatemala. I will try to see Antigua, Coban, Semuc Champey, Tikal, and then head southeast to the Atlantic coast and then to Honduras after that.
