Quick update

Just want to post some pictures so here is a quick visual update. Even though they are done with the major construction they are busier then ever! The terracing is so complicated. Here is a picture of what it should look like when they are done.
Of course it will not be white, but flagstone, but it gives you an idea. Now here are pictures of them figuring out how to pull this all off. There are so many layers and I am trying to avoid having “walls” so to speak, so it is an ever changing process. Maurice and Retro are standing on the level where the pool deck will be. The amount of fill they have to bring in to create the terracing is incredible.
Right now we have had over 20 truck loads of dirt fill, and we are far from done.



Most of the pictures are rather self explanatory.















While some are working on the terracing others are doing work inside the buildings Here Jose is putting the flagstone walls up around the sunken flagstone bathtub in Laguna, casita number 2.
We are still trying to decide on wall colors, inside and out, and have 10,570 other decisions still to make!! We are finalizing our web site and we should have our temporary link up in a few days and I will post the address. We are moving right along!! SO EXCITING!
