the swiming pool and the old lady at night

well as promised, i would like to show you the swimming pool that we are building.
this is already a old stage, so by now we already put the canvas in and could fill it up with water, but that has to wait a bit.
so here the pictures.

we used the old bookshop shelfs as a foundation and screwed them together. in the middle we put old mattresses, that we cut in the fitting size and on top, to cover everything we put a old canvas. the canvas is not in the pictures, as these pictures are a day old.

if you look careful enough, you can see a basketball ring in the back. jap, we will be playing ball games. we still have to figure out, how we fill it, as the fire pipes are filled with dirty water and to clean them will take a while. kind of like if you turn of the water back home and turn it on again after a day, you will have rusty water for like one minute. well in a ship you have the same thing, just that a minute becomes 1-2 hours. newest suggestion was using the crane and big drums, fill up the drums over the ship side and bring them on with the crane and then use the pallet jacks to bring them to the book ex. funny idea, we see what will win

well and here one picture of the lady at night.
isn't she beautiful?!

i had to think about the fact, that it has been a while, that i told you, what god has done in my life lately. well he does a lot.
the entire thing with us being here is such a pain, and it is teaching me a lot about patience. i realize over and over again, how much i need to learn to just be silent and wait for god to speak.
i had a funny moment the other day, well more embarrassing, but also funny.
it was one of these nights, when i could not sleep (have them a lot lately) so i was laying awake in my bed, thinking about my day. i had the thought, that would it not be amazing, if somebody would have written down salomons wisdom. well geog said the other night, that if we want to learn something about wisdom, that we sould read proverbs, so sebi makes his way to proverbs ans starts reading, and yes it hit me, as i realized proverbs is written by salomon. man i am such a bible looser. but hey, i learned something, i need to learn more about the book of books.
and i do, day after day

ok, i have to keep going.
have a blessed day
sebi
