At 8 a.m., neighbor Chon arrived with a crew to begin a stucco-the-wall project that is expected to take all week. At 9 a.m. Rodrigo the plumber arrived, ready to install the new copper piping for the water system.
And shortly after 10 a.m., the electrician arrived and began yanking wires and redoing power on one side of the property.
As the joke goes, 'Coffee break is over, back on your heads...'
That said, the plumber might get done today, the electrician is waiting for the trench to be dug to put things underground and a huge shipment of cement has arrived to slap up on walls to seal them.
Progress, progress.

Laura's condominio from the roof of the bodega
As much as I enjoy being in the middle of all this concrete dust, noise and chaos, (Note to readers: That was sarcastic, in case you were dozing), I am going on a foray south tomorrow (and away from the property to get some warranty work done, shop for groceries and hardware, and pick up brother-in-law David at the Manzanillo Airport.
Maybe it will all be done when we return in the evening.
Not.
