Looking really good. I have never seen mixed ERA tiles though, only tan ones.

Reminds me of one of the walls in my old bathroom
No, seriously.. it's coming along very nicely.. and the different color tiles will make it unique and not like every other sand colored bradley that will be built
Aren't you going to show off some pics of the interior?

Very nice! I like how you've used different shades of sand - it definitely adds character.
By the way, I got those photos you needed - will send within 12 hours.
