As impatient as I am I moved forward on some items that are out of sequence, but DONE, unlike other issues!

City of Marathon requires approvals for an inspection of rough plumbing, electrical and mechanical work before I can move forward.

I had gutters installed, so we can feed the cistern (required for my PBAS permit) of reclaimed water. I got a used cistern, one of the only deals I could find now here.

I wanted the balcony to be different, maybe a little like a Tiki hut atmosphere. It will take some work to get it like that and I’ll do that at some time in the future.

 

I wanted to bring in a little California style to the house in the Keys, so I fancied up the the tile with a terra cotta style tile.
