When the Spanish Engineers arrived the necessary bones of the installation were well prepared and we went to work piping in the cables, grounding the panels, hooking up the control center with the multi cluster, and inverters, cutting vents, attaching roofing, you name it. It took some time, and there were some hiccups but we got the installation up and running on time.
My time here is winding up which is a pretty scary thought. A lot has happened and I'll try my best to catch you up. A while ago we had Sister Mary's birthday celebration at the polytechnic department where she uncovered a baby doll, and all the students sang to her. Pretty cute seeing her get surprised. Afterwards she addressed us all about the up coming solar garden opening and the stakes were made pretty clear. Everyone in poly worked really hard and some long hours were had the following two weeks to make sure the opening would be a success. My internet has been pretty wonky here as of the last few weeks but I'll try to do as many picture submissions as I can. Here's us setting up on the solar control station.
Pole Sana! My regrets for such a long absence. Please accept this adorable picture in place of a heartfelt excuse, I have been pretty busy these past few weeks.
Recently I was at work in the polytechnic department when we got two new storage containers of materials for the solar garden. This thing is finally coming to fruition!
Last weekend we had a summit here in the village with one or two representatives of each board present, which was great for a few reasons. There was the amazing food we all got served, along with the chance to meet some interesting people with some serious pull with the organization. I also got the chance to buddy up with my friend Jeff Brown while he was here for a few days which was great. We got to trade a few stories, plus he brought me some chili sauce form home (I am in githeri heaven). The last perk of the summit was actually getting the kids ready with their flowers and little presentation. So much fun.
