Waste management system installed. Can't really tell from the picture but, it's about 10 feet deep and is actually a smaller version of what most cities use. The trench tailing off to the right is a sprinkler system that goes to a couple of heads in the yard. The water is clean enough after going thru the system to be used to water the yard. (3 Jun) |

Master bedroom after painting. The woodwork is gloss white, bathrooms are semi-gloss white, the rest of the walls are flat off-white (Ecru, I think). Ceiling is the blown "popcorn" stuff. (6 Jun) |

Cabinets in master bathroom. You can also see the linoleum that's installed in all the bathrooms. Note that this is one of the split-level counter types. It'll be nice to not have to bend over to use the sink. |

Master bedroom again only with the fan installed. Not really sure what they call the finish on the lights and fans. It's sort of a "distressed" copper color. (12 Jun) |
