To get a jump on the ambitious building project, the construction team, navigated the 30 minutes of
unmarked winding desert roads, getting lost only once before finding
the home we started to work on! The group met Lorenzo, Lucy, Lori and Amala
over the course of the day's work, and a couple others stopped by to
see what the gringos were up to. It seems as if the whole area knows that we were
coming. We take that to be a good sign and know that there will be further conversations.
The other half of the team visited the church service at the Navajo church in Nageese (nah-gee-see). One student remarked, "I couldn't understand the service...the whole service was in Navajo!" After that the group picked up painting supplies in Farmington, and had time to visit a natural rock formation called "Angel Rock." They say it's worth the trip to see it.
