The Bocas region of Panama is blessed with abundant rainfall, mostly. Occasionally, there are dry spells where the trails are no longer mud and clothes dry after 30 minutes on the line. And sometimes there is the rare instance where we are forced to ration water from my community's aqueduct. This really isn't a big deal. It only means filling your daily 5-gallon bucket of water at designated hours of the day. But Calante is growing and this problem is only going to escalate.
While my brother was visiting, we were able to build a secondary toma. This second water source will help in those instances where we are without water. And just as rare as being without water, someone was around to actually take photos during construction. Photos are courtesy of Bryce.
