But my arms and back sure feel like we tried!
Well just to let you in on a little secret - we do have some interest in the house finally! However the council records showed up some problems with a retaining wall on the property so we are having to fix it before any sale can go through. The upshot is that we have to dig 1/2 a metre down for a length of 11 metres! It also meant removing a Palm tree that took us all day Monday to get done. Needless to say - we are really proving our desire to go back to Ecuador - I hope I have some good news soon - that's if I can still use my poor calloused hands to type!

Wow, you guys are awesome. And you actually ARE digging your way to South America!!! Keep it up ~ Jehovah will bless you!
Bien Trabajo
We've been helping my in-laws with digging too - I feel your pain! Whatever you have to do to get back to your assignment will be worth it. You can rest your muscles in Ecuador! :)
If you want we can start digging from our end...it might go a lot faster! haha Love you guys and miss you lots...come home soon!
Hey seriously if you dig down south where do you go? Well anyway keep digging girl we're with you in spirit. Hey by the way can you give us details of that spanish groupin New Zealand? We might have visit over there maybe to help a bit. Great blogging and sell that house!!! Love YA.
Thanks everyone for your comments.
Jeff and Meli - NZ has one official group in Auckland - they are growing fast and no doubt on their way to becoming a congo. Wellington has just a small ministry group and they meet only once a month. However there is a real need there so I am picking they will form a group in the near future. Both groups would love some help and if you do visit - we could pull some strings for accommodation for you - no worries!
I will send you the contact details of the brothers through Michele. Thanks so much for your encouragement!
Hey Guys!
Ecuador is calling you... today a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon here in town. Hope that sale comes through soon.
We arrived back in town a little over two weeks ago and a happy to be back here with the friends. The visit to Australia was a whirlwind... mostly work but that was good news and means another year here. Let's do coffee soon. In Cuenca!
