We had a big yard day! Shevet Achim moved from Jaffa, suburbs of Tel Aviv, to here in Ashdod a few months ago. The house still has a pile of stuff to be sorted out and put in place, and we have been taking turns working on that. Today, we worked on the much neglected yard with lots of leaves and weeds.

Above, she is standing on the pile in the trash can to accomodate more. Can you see that we are both working in skirts? At Shevet, we have a dress code in order to show respect for the Muslim culture, with many of the patients being Arabs. We do not wear no sleeves, shirt with wide neckline, slimming clothings, tops that do not cover hips etc. We did not know about the code when we packed, and half of the things we brought did not pass it. We thus found things fitting from the pile of donations, and are working in skirts!

We cleared this section nicely working hard on this hot day (as always).
