This trip included some serious muscle showing up day two. Hammers and all their beef came one day after my arrival and it was well received! These boys know how to work!
Clearing the property including plantains, bushes and weed trimming then lead to tile removal along with toilets, fixtures and tubs. At one point I went upstairs to check on them and they all had their shirts off and covered in red tile dust.
The odd rainstorm would draw them outside to wash and cool off. It was so good to work alongside these great friends!
And of course, right on queue, the minute the junk hit the ground it was picked up by Jesus (a local) happy to take it to get recycled. I told him he was an answer to my prayers.
Eduardo (electrician) and his crew and Edgardo (plumber) pushed forward and even tag teamed the setup of the cistern, pump and pressurized water tank.
First water from the Cistern! We now don't have to worry about the daily water outage.
Hammers love the beach so we made our way to Culebra to stay a night on Flamenco beach. These boys don't ever stop getting in the water. It was pitch black before we could get them out of the surf.
Snorkeling at Melones beach in the AM then back to Rio Grande on the afternoon Ferry. It was such a great trip!
The rest of the beach included more work along with Charco Frio. Pikole on the way to the airport was the cherry on top and the acai stains on JT's mouth.
Awesome week Hammer Men. Let's do it again!
