This fence marks their property line, and the banana trees behind the fence belong to their neighbor. He sells the bananas, and dogs and chickens roam in between them as well.
This is the Hales' Forerunner, and the storage building Bill built is behind it on the left. Young chickens belonging to the neighbor behind often squeeze through the bars in the back gate until they grow too fat to fit. Once they are grown, Jennifer enjoys a reprieve from invading chickens for a while, until new ones hatch. Then the process begins again.
The family room
The family room
The guest room, where we sleep. The blanket canopy protects our bed from gecko droppings. They crawl all around the ceiling and walls, especially at night.
The bathroom and laundry room
The shower and sink
The backyard. The concrete barrel on the back right is where Bill burns their trash.
Another view of the front yard. I love this plumeria tree and the flowers surrounding it. They have a compost enclosure at the back left.
The back of the house. This is the kitchen sink window. They have a beautiful, lush view when they do the dishes.
This is the back/side fence, a.k.a. the dryer. Hanging the laundry to dry in the morning sunshine is refreshing and good for me! About 5 to 10 minutes after you come inside from hanging/taking in the clothes, you start to feel a little tickle. It's the ants. They crawl up your feet, and you don't even notice. In fact, you don't really notice them until they are way, way up your legs, in tight places! Then you really do have ants in your pants! Or on your back where you can't reach. Funny!
