Is getting closer to being finished. . . We've cut through the jungle and scrub and now have a clear path to where the two new tree houses will be built. . . Construction starts on June 15, if everything goes according to plan.
Fortunately, we had to cut just a few trees to make way for the road. We could have taken a more direct route to the two tree houses, but it would have involved cutting down too many trees, so we took the longer way. Good from an environmental perspective, a pain in the tuckus from a labor perspective.
No bulldozer, CAT or tractor, just machetes, shovels, an axe and a chainsaw for the three trees that had to come down.
The yellow tape is where the new tree houses are going to be built. It's not CSI Costa Rica.
Now that the path is cleared, we have to bring in rock for the road. First is the big rock, with some sand and other fill dirt, and then the smaller stuff to rest on top of it.

I don't get it. I don't see any trees. Are the tree houses not actually in trees?
the tree houses are in the trees, and they all use trees for support. . . those aren't the best pictures (i took them), and we have to clear the scrub inside the tape. . . then it will be clearer (hopefully). . .
