We are now in the final stages toward completion. Take a look...

The windows are now being installed to Keith and Marina's specifications..

And, the gutters are in process of being installed.

The tile work is finally completed. For the stairs to the second floor, Luis went to a wider gap of grout between the tiles. The reason for this is that the additional grout is for increased traction so you won't slip so easily when the tiles are wet. Wish they had done this on my guest house - had to end up using stick-on strips for the same purpose.

The color scheme is now in place. Luis went with a two-tone exterior for variation and a light buttery color for the interior - really looks good.

The windows and exterior doors will be completed tomorrow. The railing will be installed later this week. Saturday, we went to EPA (the Home Depot of Costa Rica) and purchased most of the lights for the house, and they will be installed this week. all the faucets and sinks will be in by the end of the week. - Because of the very high quality workmanship of the cabinets and interior doors, it will take a little longer for that phase to be completed. However, you are going to be very jealous. Please keep up with us as the casita is almost complete. - Now, we are ready to start on the Rancho and pool.
