This must look pretty rough and rugged to some, but it's heaven to me. I love
when it rains hard late at night and I wake to the sound of a full rushing river and
the sun is just waking up the jungle. It's also the biggest bedroom I've ever had.

Julio and company finishing up the
balcony support replacement job. Had
a termite attack on the base of one..so
had to replace the Teak with Pine,
which is more resistant. I think the
Pine has resins the termites don't care
for..or something. There was a big
beetle in there..maybe he was the
culprit. Moisture may have
contributed. The new ones are sealed
at the bases. Hope they last longer.
