Guest House Renovation - Day 2
Just a short video to show the progress. Taken from a crappy androidcam. Sorry.
Also, there has been a small change: Instead of the groovy shower with two seats, we're going for something groovier. Photo at the bottom.

Guest House Renovation - Day One Pics
This is the "living room".
Living room from another angle. The blinds haven't been opened in years.
The kitchen. Sorry about the blurriness. Hard to maintain balance.
This was a bedroom. Yes. Someone lived here. Slept here. Amazing.
It's important to remember that the tenants were a 75 year old church deacon and his 41 year old security guard son. So, those are holy scriptures, I guess. Not judging, not judging!
Guest House Renovation - Day 1
The tenants in our back house bounced a check in June.
Then they didn't pay July's rent.
Then they said they would have "something" for me by the last weekend of July, but they didn't.
Then they didn't pay August.
Then we went to court. That was a horror show, with accusations galore. Accusations from them. That because I am jewish I never served in the military.
Yuck.
They were evicted. And rather than squatting, they just bolted. October first they dropped off the keys.
Today the workers went in to start the refurbishing process. It's going to be expensive, but it will be worth it.
We hope.
