design a modern home and live in it

After removing walls, arches, built-ins and so forth, we are finally moving up, to the ceilings. They’ve been demoed (see photo) so they can be raised. Then the framing will go up, followed by prepwork for recessed lighting, skylights, insulation and drywall. It’s all very time consuming and challenging. At the same time, it’s amazing to experience the changes.

I will move into it in 2 more weeks. It has been a joyous experience. My only regret is that it took me 35 years of dreaming to actually do it. I wish I’d done it much, much sooner.

It’s in Rosarito, TJ and the idea is to build a modern home to vacation, live, or play with. Monday the parents and moi were in TJ and stopped by to check out the lots. For once, my camera wasn’t out of batteries or memory, so I took photos of the view. The top photo shows the view to the right, then the front view, then the view sort of to the left, and in the bottom what our sunsets will look like. Now all I have to do is design it. ;-)
