    hillbilly's lastest project...

    The following pics show hillbilly's current project up at D & G Resort. Before any of you asked, this latest adventure will cost me about B120,000 in total. Yes, the price of good wood as gone up alot. The Thai government is getting strict.

    This is my problem. What am I going to call this outdor eating area? At first, I thought of 'The Pavalion' but am still undecided. It should seat about 20 people, with a stove, sink, fridge along with a few lights and fans.

    You got any ideas?



    Here is the boss or 'chung' as the Thais call him at work.



    This is the area that the sink, stove, fridge and mini-bar will be located.



    Don't worry, the concrete posts will be wrapped with wood.

    Remember Jaew? She still works everyday as the semi-boss/head honcho/ overseerer of D & G resort.



    The boss is still thinking. He actually cut us a pretty good deal on labor. Normally, his team works in BKK but much prefer to stay in the village.

    He also happens to be another big builder in the 'mooban', so his reputation is at stake. So far so good..



    Stay tuned for the next project kicking off next month. All, I will say is that we are heading closer to the river.

    damn Mr. Billy you must be loaded, see your apparent house. Now that is great. Can you tell me what a single story home in CM would cost, with American stardards. You seem to have it all working for you sir.
