July 5

Here are a few pictures as the land is cleared
and prepared for construction.

A new view with much of the land cleared of plants
and other debris.

Stake President Sapele Faalogo called a couple of priesthood
work days to clear the area and remove produce from the
family gardens that have been occupying the land.

Everyone who had a sapelu (machete) came to
help clear away the ground cover.

As usual in Samoa, most even found time to enjoy themselves.

A few sisters arrived as well just to keep the brethren working.

And make a few baskets to carry home the produce.

No job would be complete without the 'au tapua'i.
Sidewalk Superintendants.
