The Exodus

We're making progress on the playground in Ashkelon. The Exodus is taking shape and the Magen David deck has the blocking needed for the inlay deck boards. The sailboat entry arch tops are complete and Bud and Carl are working on the support structure. The large timbers are cracked and split - I was hoping for a better quality.

We worked with three men from Ashkelon today. I think they were Arabs...or at least it sounded so. It was difficult to communicate. We used the language of pantomime.

In any event, I think we're about 1 day behind schedule. It's possible to catch up on Sunday. Tomorrow is Sabbat and no work, so we are trekking up to Tel Aviv to sightsee. I told Lev I would see him on the site at 7:00 am on Sunday.
