Our fireplace is growing before our eyes
It's the end of July and Plamínci is reporting in!
After weeks of preparation, planning, and digging the foundations, we finally got started on the most visible part—the actual construction of the roof.
Not only our team members got involved in the work, but also friends who decided to lend a hand. Everyone had their role – some drilled, others measured, passed beams, or took care of the music and good mood. It was a mixture of hard work, enthusiasm, and good energy that drove us forward.
Every day, we could see how the empty space was gradually taking on the shape that we had only drawn on paper until then. The structure began to stand firmly in place, the beams were joined together, and we felt that we were succeeding in creating something that would have real meaning.
By the end of the month, the fire pit had taken on its clear shape. From the places where we used to stand with shovels in our hands, we now look at a structure that will soon provide shelter for everyone who comes here to sit, sing, or just enjoy a quiet moment by the fire.
We are tired but happy—because we know that every plank, every nail, and every smile becomes part of a place that will remain here after we are gone.
