Well, I now have two jobs and need to be working on my resume for the third one. I have been hired as a substitute teacher for both Guam Community College and for the Department Of Education. Plus I need to prepare a resume for a job running classes for an educational tour group working out of the Marriot Hotel. There is also a job opening for a firearms instructor dow on Hotel Row and I want to take the "six-pack" captain's course and test next month. The "six-pack" captain's license allows a person to run charter fishing boats and dive boats with up to six passengers. It is much in demand here.

Yesterday we worked on the canoe house. It now lookes like it will be a real house. It has a ridgepole and rafters supporting it. It really has a house shape. We have four rafters in place and fourteen more to go. Everything is made from logs and it is all tied together. There is no metal in it at all. The guys from Puluwat swarm all over it, talking and laughing, pulling on lines and heaving on poles. We haolies stand around and grab lines and pull when needed. We work at debarking the logs and trimming the knots off smooth. I used my axe for the first time in a long, long time and was pleased to see that I can still wield the blade with some accuracy.

Today we are sunburned and sore but we have a real sense of accomplishment.
