At Amor del nino (an orphanage) they had a landslide that got within 15 feet of the one building. Their drain for the washer (which they have to use a lot everyday) used to drain down over the bank. We think the concrete pipe was leaking and over the years made a big void underground and when the hurricane hit the other month it created a big landslide. Anyway we dug a 6 ft by 4 ft by 7 ft hole by hand and found the old pipe. Then we built a box around the pipe, busted out the old pipe and ran a new pipe down over the mt. After we build the box up to the top of the hole we are planning to put a grate on top so it also catches the roof water and surface water.
The other pictures are of a project we are helping with at Vida (another orphanage). The building is going to be a kitchen and storage area.
