We finished the job with one day to spare, so Paul took us out to his cabin for some rest and relaxation. A couple of the guys took advantage of the 24hrs sunshine and stayed up all night. Work Crew Dennis, Gerald, Garry, Jerry, Ron, Steve Darcy Construction in the North can be very expensive. We had to get ALL the materials to the site a year ahead, as the barging season is short, and you have to make sure all the supplies are there before your crew gets there. Costs for barging double the material costs.
Weather can be severe, even in summer.
Now it is time to plan for our summer work projects. It is about a 2-hour drive East of Hay River, right on Great Slave Lake. There is siding and windows that need to be fixed, kitchen cabinets that need repairing or replacing, and a lot of painting and cleaning to be done. Please remember all of our missionaries in your prayers. Also pray for the people that their spiritual needs will be met, and they will continue to grow in the knowledge of the Lord.
