Nice Wood:

Guillermo today sent me a sample of the wood that will be used as the outside of Plan B.

Its the one on the far right.  A darker wood, but one that matches the trees on the land.  The wood was sustainably grown, I believe in Nicaragua- so semi local.  We chose the wood for those reason.  Its teak, which is both naturally insect resistant, and a hardwood which stands up to the elements extremely well.  This means there is no need for a polymer coating, which would be toxic, or for insecticides, which are, of course, also toxic.
