Part 4 – Well drilling in South Sudan:  "Another difficulty – Snakes appeared… because of the rain… (and) the vibration of the drill and generators 'Many snakes,' one worker commented, 'black ones,' referring to deadly black mambas. While not all of these men are believers, they know these wells will benefit their people of South Sudan, 'Bringing water is a good thing.' The cost, while substantial, is not nearly as high as the benefits reaped. 'The people of the village are so excited – they are so happy that water has come,' stated a local man. The drilling team leader summed it up, 'This is a good way to finish the drilling season.'" Celebration time tomorrow!
