Will I leave the country and this
system not be complete? As I stated before, I had the great realization that
things would not be done at my time, that I could l keep trying to fight the
system, but eventually things would be done at Dominican time, and that meant
slowly. So, I just say that it was with much effort and commitment from
everyone that the system was finished before I left!!!! It was such a feeling
of relief and amazement. Thanks to the collaboration from everyone that went,
and from Nadya all the way skyping from California we turned the pump on and
the sprinklers looked majestically!
I have to skip over the part where
it took 7 men, and 6 hours to get the pump to prime, and having to get into the
river to adjust the check valve and filter and hose, and then having to bring
buckets of water from the river to the pump….because I would need six pages to
describe the madness. But within the madness there was glory, and all the step
backs and challenges made seeing that water come out from the sprinklers all
that more magical! Dominican time made it work!
