Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. We went down to the island in June & had just the greatest time. Everything is perfect. We feel we have built our dream home & can't wait to make it permanent

This is our little community. Brian & Georgia, then Jerome & Janet

Our kitchen is complete

The kitchen & front room

Dining room & bedroom

Glendia bought this for us & it fits perfect in our home

Dinner & a movie

This is Oscar & Julia our frogs in the bathroom

I finally got the shelves up in the utility closet.

Normally really appreciate them.

We sit outside in our hammock chair & read & watch the ocean. It's great.

We take our bikes & go to the grocery store.w/ our trailer. Good exercise.

This is Wallie, he flys in the kitchen. We found the mermaid in the background. She covers the circuit breaker box very nicely.

This is Burnie. He hangs out by the closet.

This is Eva. She watches the front doors for us.

How is this for a front view. Even when there is a storm coming in.

And we had some fantastic sunsets.

Here is Jacqueline arriving on Cayman Brac

We totally love our beach. We go out everyday and pick up the stuff that floats in from the ocean. It's amazing what you find.

With a little more time I could bring up more sand to cover the front of our house. Maybe another week or two.

Our driveway looks like it goes on for ever.

We got our new air conditioner & our room dividers. They really make the house comfortable and gave Jacqueline a little privacy.

The house is just beutiful. We love it.

Our neighbors finally finished thier dream home.

It's everything they wanted & more.

But our is just what we needed.

The side yard holds our water pump & air conditioner.

Oh ya, we ate the whole thing.

Jacqueline & I had a great time cooking that lobster tail.

For Xmas we went to the Brac hotel for dinner. Our neighbors & all their kids show up there also. We enjoyed their company.

This is our street sign. Look close just above the stop sign.

We named the street, after one of our favorite Jimmy Buffet song "Beach House on the Moon" (Lane)

Here are our new couch & otterman with our new drape

We added new blindes in the kitchen. They can be raised or lower from the top or bottom.

Our new king size bed is so comfortable we never wanted to get out.

We got 2 of these rugs for our bathroom.

We found some great dinner ware that fits in perfectly. What do you think?

We had some of the greatest sunset ever. We just sat on the front pourch til the sun went down. It was great.

2007-06-13T20:28:00.000-07:00

We had the beach cleared & placed the stone along the property line. our neighbors house is coming along. We are going back in July & will have more pictures then.

2007-02-13T21:31:00.000-08:00

Well at last the house is finished, not furnished, but beautiful.

2006-11-22T20:01:00.000-08:00

Hi the house is really coming togather now. New fans, light,vanities, and cabinets. It's really looking good.

The house should be complete by the end of the year. We have made plans to go down on the 8th and see it for ourselfs.

2006-10-15T13:11:00.000-07:00

We now have a floor in the house. It's a little dirty but you can get an idea of what it will look like.

Our front porch now has lights. Still waiting for the tile to be layed down though.

We asked Carvel why the fans are on an angle. I guess we purchased the wrong style, flush mount instead of arm mount. He said the salt air would get to them before the bearings wore out. We just have to deal with it later.

We can't wait to go down and see the place for ourselves.

This is our interior shot of the House looking NW out the front window

This a view of the kitchen area. The cabinets are due in about 4 weeks

This is the bathroom. We hope the colors are a better match in real life. We will just have to wait and see.

This is the only shot we hve of the outside paint for now.

This is the septic Tank. Its' placed toward the west property line about 30 feet from the house.

Preparing to pour the floor. Looking from the south wall toward the north

.

Lower left corner is the cap on top of the cistern & our front pourch.

The walls are going up. This the front of the house. Doesn't look like much yet.

This is looking at the south wall. Which is the entry way to the hous.
The 2 kitchen windows, the door, bath rm. window, & sliding glass door. Hard to see huh.

This is the west wall. It only has 1 window toward the front.

The top of the walls will tie the roof down with these metal connectors. This roof is going anywhere.
The opening is the sliding glass door to our back patio.

This is the finished cistern, Our porch will set on top of it. Where we will sit and watch the sunset.
The house will set in the forground.
The cistern is 6' wide x 40' long. That should be enough water for the 2 of us.

This is looking west. They pulled out a lot of coral. It will be used to make concrete & concrete blocks on the island.
