Loo revisited

Yesterday Mandy wove a roof for the outhouse so we have privacy and some limited shelter from the rain. Most importantly it's stopped all the leaves, seeds and fruit falling on the seat, which were making some nasty looking stains.

 

The walls of the outhouse are just the packing boxes I made to safely transport the solar panels. The plan is that if/when we get a big hurricane looming I'll pack the panels up in these boxes again to increase their chance of survival. I will slightly bury the box and put some logs in top.

Not much progress otherwise though. I've cleared a new garden site near the well and planted some more papaya. My back is playing up so we've not got much done on the house site recently.

Today it's bucketing down with rain and we're getting a bit of thunder and lightning. The rain barrels are topped up again so at least we have plenty of water.
