The House is Bright!
Monday, April 14th, 2008Here is Lorie inspecting the hallway, utility room, and guest bath tile. Yes, it adds to the brightness of the house. This tile I am hoping will help to mitigate the sunlight coming in.

Everyone’s Doing That Rag
Sunday, April 6th, 2008On the Mountains of the moon! Brian is showing off for the camera, but our lot is not.
The snow is gone revealing the wounded earth. Soon the eaves troughs and gutters will be installed and we can proceed with applying the finish grade and planting a lawn. I am very keen to get the lawn […]
