The first phase of the apartment isn't totally finished yet. We don't have propane yet, so no hot water and no showers. We haven't started staying out there yet. We still lack a few details in the bathroom. Yes, the bathroom is BLUE, actually eucalyptus leaf. I still haven't decided whether the color will stay until we get all of the rest of the stuff in the bathroom with towels/rugs/etc. to tone it down a little. There is no window in the bathroom, so it needed to be kind of bright. We definitely accomplished that.
The wrinkled looking wall to the left is where the doorway will open up to the new addition. Rick is putting in forms on the new part now and will do the plumbing in the next few days. I have a few pictures and will post them soon.
The left window is the one Rick was framing in the other pictures.
We wanted a rustic looking "roof" on this part and used some old tin we got from the farm in Benjamin. We haven't painted the wall or door yet or put trim around the door. Rick is also going to do something with those old windows and door. The "roof" covers up most of the stuff stored above the apartment. The silver a/c tubing will probably get covered somehow. The decking will also go all the way across the top for a storage loft--probably a winter project.
