Casita Almost Completed

We are at the point of almost being finished with the casita. The windows have been installed, all the ceilings are finished and Luis is in the process of installing all the light fixtures.

In addition, Omar has the alarm system installed and ready (see the motion sensor in the corner of the wall at the ceiling).










All of the tile and sinks have been installed. Now we are ready for all the cabinets and closets that John Rojas is working on and should have installed before the end of this month. The preferred method for building cabinet bases in Costa Rica is to use concrete for the base and cover it with wood. You will soon see that John's woodwork is outstanding.











This is the view from the kitchen of the upper level



























This is the sink that we are using for the bathrooms
















Now comes a very important part of the process for me. This is because I suffer from Vertigo and in need of protection when higher than 3 feet off the ground. - Yep the railings for the stairs and upper floor that Biron has just installed and boy am I happy about that. - he has done an outstanding job and all the railings are very solid.

Looks pretty good don't you think? - We are now only a few weeks away from moving in. However, Keith needs to come here and pick out the furniture - Think he may enjoy that :-)
