07.13.2005 Hello Friends and Family,

All is still going well. I have enclosed a few updates in this email, but most of the updates are in our new blog at http://ehlersindia.blogspot.com/
We posted all of our emails up to this point and Clay just posted some nice commentary on bugs, surprise, surprise. So be sure to check it out. We will be journaling on the blog periodically and will probably send emails a little less frequently. Also, we have added more pictures to the website and will continue to update often.

Interesting Experience:
We contracted with a carpenter to do some work in the apartment. Install door stoppers so our doors don’t slam shut every time a breeze comes through the flat, install a couple of curtain rods (we have nowhere to hang clothes right now), and to install 2 baby gates (one at the bottom of the stairs, one at the top).
It was all supposed to be done last Wednesday, then it was supposed to be done last Friday, Monday we heard that it’s not done because it rained on Saturday. On Monday they said everything would be done on Tuesday. The carpenter came on Tuesday and installed half of the doorstoppers, nothing else.
