Planning the new garden, pics of new place
Comments (7)I think a nice gift for you might be a chainsaw-LOL I have done some trimming around here and maybe have one or two more branches to remove,I guess you will get an idea by mid March how the sun is going to track. I think if you have 4-6hrs(esp mid-day)you should be able to grow just about everything you want,did you bring that washy?I think out in the front yard(out of shade and away from house) would be a nice sunny spot for it.Boy,you sure have lots of room to work with and I love the river rocks around the side and back of the house!looks like the front of the house is the best spot for your new cactus garden? I don't know what to tell you about those deer though,they sure are beautiful until they eat your favorite palm!I know they will eat almost anything when they are hungry. It sure will be fun to follow your progress with the new place,happy hunting,err,I mean for your new plants;-)...See MoreUpdate on DR progress - new (CL) table in place & I have a ?
Comments (12)I think dark paint will take the whole look up a style notch. It looks nice now, but honestly, a teeny bit yawn worthy - don't hate me! And you know I am normally off the black paint bandwagon - too predictable, too dust highlighting, so I think charcoal will be tres chic. However..... painting the fan spindles will be a royal PITA unless you spray. You're gonna think I'm nuts, but I'd tape off everything but the fan spindles and spray them - in charcoal if you can find it, but black if not - and then paint the rest of the chair charcoal. Bring them over here on a crisp day and we'll do it together!...See Morehow to place TV and furniture in this family room w corner fire place?
Comments (1)A sectional probably isn't the best bet for this layout. Keep the TV on that wall, but get a lower console (and a wider one should be 25-50% longer than TV). A sofa and two chairs would all for better traffic paths and feel more open....See MoreBest / most charming place(s) to visit in New England?
Comments (29)Part of the reason for turning our attention to New England is that the transatlantic journey to the UK is already a difficult one for my mother. Last year we went, and she suffered with a partially diagnosed back problem that actually compelled her to have back surgery the month following our return home. She was in significant pain for much of the trip, but somehow managed to "keep calm and carry on" for the most part. She's over that physical problem now, but realizes that she moves much more slowly than ever before and it's just increasingly hard to get out and do/see as she once was able to. However, England maintains its "magical hold" over us both, so I can't say we've ruled out the trip that we've been planning ... just wanting to weigh all of our options, and it does seem that New England holds a number of good ones! As for what we like to do ... Well, we mostly just enjoy the experience of being in new places and seeing how others go about their lives. We are people watchers, and enjoy meeting locals. We like historic places (although we don't tend to spend a lot of time in museums), places that are quaint, charming, and beautiful. We like to dine out -- nothing terribly fancy, though -- and have a fondness for afternoon tea. We like ice cream. We like interesting, quirky shops. We like encountering interesting, quirky people. We like seeing things that are very much unlike things we would see at home. I watched a few YouTube videos last night on New England, one in which a man talked about HATING to drive in that part of the country. He said that particularly in the summer and fall, roads are horribly congested, but that some of it can be avoided if one gets off the main drags and heads for the backroads. Is that easily done? Re Martha's Vineyard -- I've read that it costs around $140 or so take a car over on the ferry. Does that sound right? Does that include the return trip? Renting a car on MV is prohibitively expensive. I have never spent any time in Boston (although I'll be flying through there in a few days). I've looked into flying into other places such as Hartford and New Haven, and it looks like BOS is going to be our only option for non-stop flights on AA....See MoreSara K
