Split personality

Today was the last day of the Iowa veterinarian trip with only Kari left and as she missed the first day I took her to the equator monument to stand in both hemispheres at the same time

Animal spotting

During the yearly veterinarian trip, session one, I always enjoy to see the animals. Here is a Cayman in Banos that got some parasite medicine.

Mindo bathrooms

Managed to make the bathroom tables this weekend and I think it turned OK.

I used the same wood as the floor that the carpenter just helped me to glue together. To make it a bit nicer I put them together in a similar way as the floor to so it would blend in even more.

My idea with using part of a plastic tube to cover the installation for the water.

And this is how it looks covered up, just the one tube that will be painted in the same color as the ceramic on the wall.

The master bathroom also got the table but a bit smaller
