Back in Afghanistan to Check In on Construction

I haven’t been able to write recently because I’m traveling a lot and can’t get to the Internet Cafe very often. 
Conditions are dangerous in Afghanistan—fighting has increased—but our school is safe. The fighting is elsewere, mostly on the highway, and not in Wonkhai village. Attackers come and go, as in a hit and run.
My workers resumed construction. Prices of food, fuel, and other material costs have risen, but we will be able to manage with an extra fund-raiser, maybe in December.

The school looks very pretty, the villagers are very happy and they said they will protect it with their blood. So far there is no problem there. Security is fine in Wonkhai. I will be going again on Tuesday to see how did it progress. Love to all.
