Well, the Outdoor Shower has morphed again. If Apple can be on OS 10, the shower can grow to 8 Point Oh! First, in case you didn't get in on this earlier here's a two year old post for
Shower 7 Point Oh!
Thanks to Richard, who's back in my life and we're both grateful for it, the shower no longer looks like a shanty. It now has lovely cedar picket walls, an additional 20-ish square feet and a reworked floor. And a new flower bed and stepped flower pot display box over some old plumbing.
Here are some pictures. Oh my Shower 8 Point Oh!

This is the little box Richard built around the old exposed plumbing |

Looking South, the outside of the shower with the new flower bed. On the left of the picture is the door into the laundry room |
|
The new flower bed. One of my favorite parts. We planed two new flowering Jasmines. I'm looking forward to their lovely fragrance. YUM! |

This is the walk from the door of the laundry room to the shower door. |
|
That's the shower door on the right. This is what you see if you look left after entering. |
|
Turning right after entering is the "dry" area for changing. There's a ficus tree between the wet and dry areas. It's a very effective water block. |
|
This is a cast iron water meter cover for New Orleans. I wanted to steal one while I was there but was forced to buy it instead. I love this thing. And what more appropriate place to display it? |
|
This is taken from the dry end looking to the other side. The shower heads are on the left in the picture. This is a good view of the ficus which shields the dry area from water splatter. |
|
Here's the door. Now you're done with your shower! |

I had a blast being the shower construction helper. I screwed many screws and placed all the river rocks. The plants seem to be happy. I don't plan to shower inside again till October.
Come visit. Heck, I'll even provide a towel!

Oh my gosh Michele- this is kind of like watching the transformation/s of the Lake whitney Cabin! When you get to 12.0 i am moving in (I already have bed linens for a queen size please). It is truly remarkable. I especially love the sewer cover and the stepped plant shelf! Wonderful!
