Day 47:Closing in the edges

When I first arrived, I couldn't quite figure out what happened to the gigantic mound of sand that was dumped in front last week.

Cuando llegue, no sabia donde se fue todo el arena que estaba adelante de la casa. Luego, cuando estaba sacando fotos, lo vi...

Then I realised they had moved it into all the rooms that were going to be elevated. I'm not sure if they had a tractor do it in the end or if they did it by hand, because last week the tractor tried and it couldn't fit and today the space didn't look any bigger. I'll ask them tomorrow.

Sand in the bathroom. (makes the bathroom look smaller.)

El bano parece mas pequeño ahora.

Guest bedroom and bathroom.

All the cement on the roof will need a boarder so that it doesn't fall over the side...This is what the guys were doing today. There were tons of clamps all around the house. and so many holes in the blocks. My first thought was, will I be the one who gets to fill them when the roof is done?Question: They don't wear harnesses when they're up there...Will they let me go up there? Do I want to go up there?

Hoy cuando vi todo los agujeros mi primera pensamiento era...Me van a dejar de rellenarlos? Es muy alta y como no llevas harness....me van a dejar subir? Y si me dejan, quiero subir?

Below is the stairwell area. You can see the panels on each side being held up by the poles. These poles are pretty cool. They're like the cheap temporary shower curtain rods but they can sure take a beating and they can hold a lot! The guys literally smash them with hammers to tighten them. I wonder if they are strong enough to make an aerial yoga contraption!

No se como se llama los palos que utilizan pero son guay y super fuerte. Quizas puedo utilizar unas para hacer el 'aerial yoga'!

This is the wet room area. These guys have been working like elves. I guess it's better I stay out of their way this week. Guzman says all this stuff could fall on my head...I guess we don't want that.

I think they are going to set up the House section, and then, as it's done and settling, they will work on the studios.

Here are the guys hard at work.

On a side note, I got new construction boots today!

Chicos, compre mis zapatos de obra hoy! wuu huuu!
