12/29/04 Dear Jim and Constance, I am attempting to send two photos of the chimneys, one from down at the street in front of the garden wall, and one taken from near the dome on top of the courtyard roof. We finally topped off the two chimneys with a flat concrete slab on raised corner blocks, and completed the cement cladding that makes the chimneys look a lot like traditional wind towers that used to cool Arabian Gulf homes before air conditioning. They are cement plastered and painted off-white like the outside of the house. All that remains is to affix wire netting around the top openings to keep birds and debris from getting in. We are SO proud of our work. You can be too. Anita* |
