Though we still have a few details to finish (such as the side-panels for the stage and a couple more braces), I took this photo Saturday while I was cleaning the tub cover, because I liked the way it looked. Then just a few hours after I took the picture, Grace connected the water line I ran under the floor last week; if you enlarge the picture you can probably spot the valve hanging under the little stage there, already connected on the fountain end. A bit later, we connected the other end to the line that feeds hot water to the sink and dishwasher, and I’m quite pleased to say it works! If I hadn’t already topped off the tub just a couple of days ago (you can see the level is relatively high), I would’ve gone ahead and used the fountain to do so Saturday, because as I explained two weeks ago, that’s what her practical function will be. Up until now, I’ve had to drag the hose around to dump dozens of liters of 10o C water into a tub we want kept at 38o C, but now I’ll be topping off the tub with water that’ actually hotter than what’s already there. But besides the practical function, I just love the whole aesthetic of having a stone statue above my spa, and I really love the fact that every week, we’re getting a little closer to being completely done.
