Progress

Neighbor is off for the next two days, slow at the factory. So he is building two bamboo papags for our use. Wood was delivered today for the frame, from Dad's mahogany tree farm in nearby San Sebastian. An old spiral staircase was rescued from the junkyard to provide access from the neighbor's house where we will park when there. Found a place for the water tanks to be installed as well, in the South-east corner of the house between the lansones and langka trees. The rainwater collector would be underneath the impoundment for the water-district-supplied water.

Finished not one but TWO sun-heated water containers for solar shower. Will place one on top of the roof at the house and the other can be our portable hot shower.

Bought more seeds and starter pots. Did you know they now sell seed packs called Pinakbet and Sinigang? These are collections of seeds of the veggies needed for these dishes. P129. Starting them tomorrow, hope to plant them in the coir pots towards the end of May.
