photos - visitors - part 6

Bill is concentrating at nailing the boards together to make sure he doesn't hit his thumb!
The guys are almost done.
While I was taking pictures from the roof of the screening being done I looked over the neighbors yard and took some pictures.
The lot behind us is occupied by a few squatter families. Their building is an unfinished building but it is better than living in a tarp shelter!
One evening we heard a loud sound and the first thought on everyone's mind was "earthquake". Everyone jumped up and ran away from the house. Actually it was this pickup truck that lost its brakes. The driver managed to avoid some pedestrians and smashed it into a wall and rear ended another vehicle. One of the passengers ended up being taken to the hospital with a broken arm. Here in Haiti you have to keep on your toes. The next earthquake could hit at any time!
