Here's a photo of the front of the house TODAY; new brickwork and wood columns and an unusual yellow Rhododendron that we purchased from the garden center on Sunday.
We also planted a Red Maple and a Climbing Hydrangea (I'm not sure what that is). Here's more photos:
Today is Joyce' birthday (I won't say how many). She celebrated the day by changing her mind about the kitchen! Mark, a contractor friend suggested knocking an outside corner out so we could expand things...good idea, but straining our already tenuous budget.Why didn't they do this in the first place? I ask.
We've already spent over $10,000 on this project!
Well, work goes on and here Greg the mason is up on the roof inspecting the chimney...something neither of us should be doing at our age...............................................
Joyce received this nifty sundial/birdbath for her birthday that I will put on an old tree stump...it reminds us of how short life is and to value each moment...an appropriate thing for a birthday!
Next week...my special "birthday gift" for myself and the estimate for the kitchen addition...
