Martin and I (Stephen) recently finished our “prototype” bunk bed with raw lumber we bought locally. I think it looks good and it will support an elephant if one ever comes to spend the night at Casa Cristana El Alfarero. The Lord has blessed us so we have enough wood now to build two more.

1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth!

5 For the Lord is good; His mercy endures forever,
and His faithfulness to all generations.
