The Construction Diary

After over a year of construction, a few near-heart attacks, a severe strain on our personal relationship  and devastating debt……….., we can say we have survived the project, though a bit torn and frayed…...!  Through it all we kept this photo diary.  The saying goes "a photo is worth a thousand words".  In this case the photos are inadequate.  The high energy of the workers, the daily crisis' and challenges, the sleepless nights filled with worry; none of this can be captured digitally.  But the photos give you an idea………….


The tranquility and beauty of Rancho Ali Shungu has made the entire experience worthwhile!
