Jon never seems to miss out on a photo opt. He's always ready to pose for the picture! :)
This is the ditch that needed to be dug. It was 60 CM deep which is right around 2 feet deep. Pipes then had to be pounded into the ditch, a huge "cable" attached, and then this needs to be connected to the "cable" from the building. (We just helped with the ditch while some of the others worked on pounding the pipes) It will act as the grounding for the building and in case it is struct by lightning. There will be metal wires run up along the corners of the buildings with rods attached to the top of the building. If you have no idea of what I'm talking about, think about the old farm houses and other old building in the states that have those metal wires running down the corners of the buildings and that will give you a good idea of what I am trying to describe. I apoligize for the lack of descriptive words. :)
