Final Renovations

We have finally gotten to our final project on the house: making a sitting area on the roof for people to enjoy the weather/scenery while eating a fabulous lunch that they prepared. It's also an ideal place to smoke a cigar, if that is something that you enjoy doing.

So this past weekend was spent tearing up all the ugly colored cement and replacing it with traditional roof tile. Then repainting the walls on the roof to cover up all the splattered cement particles. That part of the project is done and I had the wonderful opportunity of lifting around 65 buckets full of tile 3 floors up to the roof. That was my upper body workout for the week.

The final part left of the final renovation project is having my tent made and sitting area prepared. This should take a few more days, but by the end of next week, I will have a roof "living room" that I can be very proud of. The next thing I need to find is a personal waiter to bring the coffee and tea.

As soon as that gets done, I will paste some more pictures. Then you will definitely want to come over just for the view.
