Wood Mizer

The Wood Mizer just showed up a few days ago. It cuts lumber into boards. It was donated to us by Wood Mizer. This is going to create the opportunity for us to be self-sufficient and also for guys in the program to learn a trade. Teak wood is plentiful, durable, and good looking, so there is plenty that can be done down here. There is a lot of exotic wood that gets pretty expensive. As long as the wood is on your land you can cut it, if not you have to go through quite the process. Jared and I went out on his motorcycle today to level the ground and assemble the rest that needed to be put together. Jared is gifted when it comes to these sorts of things and myself on the other hand not so gifted. Able, but not gifted. So I did most of the lifting and grunt work. It looks great. It is on a gentlemen's property named Larry who is letting us use his property. He is being quite generous by letting us use his land and store out things there. I will be going to Jaco to buy a bus ticket either this week or the next. I have to leave every three months for my passport. I will have to be gone for 3 days, then I will be able to return for 90 more. I am still trying to decide on whether I should go to Panama or Nicaragua.
