Lately we have been making great strides at the cabin. The siding is finished, electrical is 3/4 installed and the covered awning has begun. It’s looking really good.

We have also been going out and having a lot of fun at various events and functions. The other day we went to Casa Hines to see one of our artist friend’s art shows. Rincón has an awesome community of artists here. Rincón has been called little Hollywood by some, but it is also sort of a Bohemian village of artistic talent as well.

We also recently went to a beach house birthday party where our band, the Rincón Continentals were asked to play a set.

Life is so fun. So much like a dream. One minute we are hob-nobbing in swanky locales with friends and local celebrities and playing music under palms trees and the next we are hunting down rats, nailing up boards, rescuing baby chicks, picking fruit and cleaning off turkey poop. And we enjoy it all. I love that I just never know exactly where the next adventure will take us.
You should make a post about your little cabin you made, it looks amazing!
The house looks amazing, the fact that you guys are fitting in a lot of fun in between is just icing on the cake. Do you think you might share your material costs down the line? We want to build something similar and within similar circumstances. (We have a small lot and our family would help with most of the bldg) Btw, I wanted to ask something from your last post. Do you shoot the iguanas too? They drive us all here a little mad with their destructive tendencies. There are two older ladies here (complex) that I occasionally see, one with a bag of rocks and the other a large kitchen knife. 0_0 They really hate the iguanas eating their prized orchids.
You are awesome in how you mix the hard work of cabin building with lots of fun about town….so needed! I’ve a question, too, about if the iguanas eat your veggies or other plants.
The cabin looks great Cassie. All the hard is certainly paying off. We also have had similar iguana problems and my grandson took a shovel to a couple of them. When we had the dog, there was some animal waste on the marquesina and we blamed him but later found out it was the iguanas. Unfortunately, they are a nuisance and plentiful.
