More blocks please

The morning started off as if everything was in order just as we thought it was. Until that is, the morning phone call from Fran to tell us that the block we had ordered last Friday (not yesterday, but LAST Friday) had not arrived. He summed it up by saying that there was only enough block on hand for the workers to finish working today, but there wouldn't be any for Monday morning. As it happened they actually used all the available block by 1:30! Thank the Lord that He has given us relationship with so many wonderful and helpful people. We called our Baní hardware store owner, and he agreed to get a load of block out there today so the guys could keep on working. Now to be fair, we had ordered the block from him to start with, but he was waiting for the factory to bring it directly to us instead of delivering it to him. That saves him transportation costs. This particular block factory is known for the good quality of its blocks, but it is also becoming quite well recognized for its lack of urgency in making deliveries! We're delighted that Ramón, the hardware store owner, is so willing to work with us to facilitate what we do. It's good business for him, but it's a blessing for us.
