Welcome to Dick and Jim's new blog site.
We have started construction of our casita on Torrente De Agua in Playon Sur, Costa Rica. This post is just the beginning. Over the next several months we will add to this as our story unfolds.
The most exciting part, construction began on May 1, 2008.
Of course, writing this you might think walls are going up. Not so, the beginning is setting up the entry drive/patio. That required some digging and footing placement so that we have a stable entry point.
On Sunday May 1, Gerardo, Rob and Jim met to refine details, and set a different back wall line. This will allow us to add .75 meters to the footprint, making the upper "outside" deck a total of 2.75 meters wide, greatly adding to our outside upper sitting/dining deck. The lower becomes an uncluttered 1.75 meter lower deck off the two guest bedrooms.
Pictures, and more to post soon!
Muy Bien!
Ricardo y Jim ("Jeeeem")
