Phase one of the Jungle building project.

The first trip we (Keith and I) built all the walls for the first story.

This orphanage will be called the Arc, and will house 47 peruvian orphans.

Sawmill anyone? One of the great challenges to being fast and productive in the Jungle was the primitiveness of all the tools. We had to make our 2by4's out of enormous "trees" with this sawmill!!!

Don't let the picture fool ya, these pieces of wood are 10' by 16' by 14feet long. Which also means they were each about 300lbs.


Because of the extreme heat in the Jungle, walls on your house are purely optional.
