Casa Update 5B

All,

Well, we have been here over a week now. Still getting settled in. The Casa progress is still at breakneck speed. They are going up on Monday and getting the appliances that we bought all over Southern California. Almost all of the accent tiles are in. You can see some of them in the pictures. Fixed a problem that Lupe pointed out about the rear porch. Now all of the columns will look the same. We discovered a major problem today. Almost all of the tiles in our bathroom are developing hairline cracks.Don't know what this will do to the schedule but we'll see. Other than that, the punch list is progressing very well. You will see the double outlets in the kitchen now and tile in the courtyard. We are investigating a propane refrigerator for the garage. This would allow us to turn off the big honking generator at night. Regina's cell phone was retired on last Monday. It still will ring into next week, but she cannot answer it any more or retrieve any messages on it. Will update you on her new number next email. Also, please don't leave messages on mine yet. Their voicemail is in rapid Spanish and I've been promised a lesson on retrieving messages next week.

Enough for today. Next update in a week.

Larry and Regina
