The four person team working on the runway faced many challenges including rain, a flat tire, a cement bag breaking as it was in transit to the airstrip, and the hopper coming off its hitch and flipping over as it was being filled with cement. Despite these setbacks, they worked through the weekend with Jack and Perri making some finishing touches on Sunday morning. Now it mostly involves letting the cement cure.
Those of us flying out this Friday appreciate all their efforts to make sure the runway is ready for the plane to land on schedule. Thank you for all your hard work carried out in the tropical heat.

Grand work. Thanks so much for charting their progress, Joe, and for documenting the repair. Really means a lot to those of us 'stateside.' Safe travels home!
