SMC Dominica: Day Seventeen: Pouring the Floor and the SAD Office

http://smcdominica.blogspot.com/2011/01/day-seventeen-pouring-floor-and-sad.html

Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Day Seventeen: Pouring the Floor and the SAD Office. Just as we began to pour the floor, Charles took Shawny and Scott into town to chase down some camera lenses that our beloved support colleague Renee had sent from California. They have been held up in Customs for a week or so now, so we finally just drove down there to try to get them out. January 25, 2011 at 7:27 AM. Travel back safely because you still have many many years of work on your canvas. January 25, 2011 at 7:50 AM.

SMC Dominica: Day Sixteen: Rigorous, Arduous, and Slippery

http://smcdominica.blogspot.com/2011/01/day-sixteen-rigorous-arduous-and.html

Monday, January 24, 2011. Day Sixteen: Rigorous, Arduous, and Slippery. The hike is about eight miles long and it involves climbing about 2000 vertical feet then dropping down 1000 or more before going up again to get to a huge overlook above the lake. The trail is apparently always muddy – really really really muddy – so hikers get a one-inch or so platform on the bottoms of their boots to complicate things a bit more. The pool at the bottom brought great relief, especially because it turned out to be a...

Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Day Eighteen: Farewell to the Site. We also focused on our interviews and other video work for the projects that we will complete for our final work in this course.

Charles and the workers were all in cahoots to throw a big party for us tonight and they did a great job of pulling things...

Sunday, January 23, 2011. Day Fifteen: Of Rasta Jellies and Cutlasses. We cranked things up early today to make a very important run into town: for shopping! We haven't focused on souvenirs (other than pictures and memories) at all so today we set aside the morning to go to Roseauto buy some (for ourselves and no doubt for some of YOU! And Nutella (our newest addition to the staples that we carry with us every day. (The other two main staples are Tapatio hot sauce and an assortment of Clif Bars.). We hus...

http://smcdominica.blogspot.com/2011/01/day-fourteen-mr-sparkle-and-dance-of.html

Saturday, January 22, 2011. Day Fourteen: Mr. Sparkle and the Dance of the Plywood. Day Fourteen: Mr. Sparkle and The Dance of the Plywood. Scott came up with an ingenious use of our battery-powered drills when he rigged a piece of bent rebar into it to use as a mechanical stirrer. It made all of the difference in the world to be able to really mix the concrete properly with something other than a shovel, pick, or pitchfork. January 22, 2011 at 12:50 PM. You all are getting so much done! What a tremendou...
