Ohana -- Now In Week 11

Week 10 the drywall went up, but this week all the cracks corners and seams will be finished for us to paint. The picture to the left is of the kitchen (hard to tell with the equipment) but it will feature a counter/bar that will extend into the living area, great cupboards and drawers, and of course a range and refrigerator.  Just outside the big window to the left (just outside the photo) there is a nesting pair of Myna birds who seem undisturbed by our project.

In the late afternoon and evenings we all have found ourselves wandering upstairs to sit on the west facing balcony, and it has become everyone's new favorite spot.

Here's Dexter Dinkums Wigglesworth III relaxing after a hard day with his dad.  Dexter has figured out now, how to go out the front door and head upstairs to the apartment when the contractors are having lunch -- so he can catch anything that falls, and as is his custom, help clean out the lunch bowls and boxes.

This week, after adjusting the back door screen, he can now go out the front, and in (again) through the back door.  Fortunately he has finally realized that he does not need a "doggie door" because he can use the people door.  Of course, he thinks that's pretty cool.
