Bodega living

This is the bodega, where we keep a lot of the extra lumber and tools that we don't keep up by the house.

It has been converted (hence the plastic tarp and covering you see) to a lumber storage facility, complete with sleeping
quarters for the construction folks.

They're sleeping up on lumber that they put across the steel beams that run from one end of the bodega to the other.

They stay here Monday through Saturday (taking off at night sometimes to head to the market or bar) and are back to work around 6 every morning. They take off Saturday afternoon
to go see their families and return on Monday mornings.

There is a toilet and shower there, and they brought along their own cooking materials, etc., and even a radio and television that they have been following the World Cup on.

This will be the place they live for the next couple of months while
finishing up the construction.
