That translates to Birthday Wood! Hannah and Francisco had just moved into a new place when we arrived in Monteverde and were in need of furniture. They both have November birthdays so it was decided to make furniture for gifts! A little unfair that Francisco had to work for his present but what a great opportunity for BigJohn and Francisco to get better acquainted.
It took a couple of trips to the lumber yard at Paso's house in Santa Elena and multiple trips to the hardware store for screws, nails, varnish, etc. But the project is almost completed!
Getting the wood ready.
Adding some varnish.
Putting together the kitchen counter.
Almost finished with this one!
