Monday I headed back to Delice / Blessing after getting some pvc pipe and supplies in Port au Prince.

| Hard cement layer over soft, rough cement floor |
Resurfacing the floor is about half done, will take a few more days this fall to finish.
Plumbing is mostly done and now a toilet works.

| Planting macadamia trees |
A few fruit trees, macadamias, potatoes, yacon and ornamentals are planted.
Pepino dulce/sweet cucumber has produced well the past year, along with some tomatoes that sprouted in the neighbor's yard and produced well on their own.

| Peach palms from Costa Rica 3 years after planting & good grazing |
We checked out all the gardens and most are growing well.
We spent part of two mornings weeding and trimming the tree nursery.

| Malay apple tree |
On the way to the airport Friday, we stopped at Deep River Mission to deliver a few fruit trees, coconuts and see how the trees we provided a year or two ago are growing.
Many have grown fast and should start fruiting soon.
Starfruit is already producing and had good flavor.
