In the middle of the night, a surprise visitor arrives from Helsinki. We bake rye bread in a Dutch oven, put up huge mosquito nets, set up our mobile phone antennas, and build some very special kitchen furniture. On Sunday, we visit our new neighbors downstream, who are undertaking a very similar project, and marvel at some very special Estonian architecture. Coffee is available again, too.
On Wednesday morning, everything we need to make coffee is finally back in place. We need it! Infrastructure projects are progressing: the well is finally providing water, and the new solar panels are being provisionally installed. A tidy kitchen and workshop have replaced scattered cardboard boxes, and the mosquito-free zone project is taking shape.
After months of preparation, we are sitting on packed suitcases. Cars, trailers, and association members are driving halfway across Europe to build in Rihula for the second time. Fortunately, we arrive safely and are greeted warmly.
We use the time between the years to review our construction work on Rihula. The before and after comparison shows how much we have achieved this year!
After more than four weeks of work, our construction has come to an end. The group completes the last construction sites, prepares the yard for the winter break and for next year and reviews the past month over a few kilograms of scrap metal. Goodbye, Estonia!
