Hey Friends, it's been a while. Thank you for following us on our odyssey out West. As much as I love to get away, it seems like when we return it takes a bit to get back up to speed at home. We returned to 110 plus degree temps so it was a huge effort just to keep things alive in the garden til the cool down. About a month ago we decided to undertake the first of a couple of structures we are planning for the Wayback. I give you Papi's Cantina;

| Here is what we started with, our storage unit with a big blank spot beside it & adjacent to the pool. |

| Corrogated metal roof & we clad the storage unit to match |
 |
| A little bit of heaven!!! |
We still have much to do but I can already tell Papi's Cantina is going to be one of our favorite hang-outs. When we remodelled our kitchen a few years ago we saved our old cabinets & countertops. Our good friend Alain @ La Baguette is redoing some cabinets there & passed on a countertop too. So when that's all installed I'll post an update.
Looks great, you all! Only request: post more photos of Ernesto shirtless!! ;)
