Well, after washing down all the walls and surfaces, priming, painting first and second coats... it's been a long week, but we're happy with the final result. I still have another coat of blue on the cabinet doors, and a few touch-ups here and there, but I'll get to that on Monday... I'm taking the weekend off. I spent today preparing for our guests who are coming tomorrow morning for a visit. We invited Juan (the head honcho at the cooperative who helped us in the early days) and his family to come fishing and have some lunch. They had come by last Saturday, unexpectedly... this time, I'll be ready! Painting can wait. Here are a few pictures showing the before and after of the living room and kitchen area: ![]() Before... ![]() ![]() Before... ![]() ![]() ![]() Before... ![]() ![]() Before... ![]()
