Stone heaven!

Last week I was spending a little time with Juniper out in the yard. Like many kids her age she has a huge interest in picking up small colourful stones and collecting them by the handful. I knew exactly where we would go...  As part of our current building project we have a large pile of drain rock out by Becke's modular home. Juniper and I walked over there and she was in heaven. There were more beautiful rocks than she had ever seen previously. She clambered to the top and was instant queen of the mountain!

Making it anything but ordinary

Modular homes aren't known for their distinctiveness. Many friends have wondered aloud how we will make Becke's new home fit into the unique landscape of our property. We're not worried and that process has now begun. Today we installed the framework for her new front stairs. It features a curved staircase. Soon it will have rock work on both sides and log posts - all sculpted from concrete as is our style. The landing and steps will be poured with coloured concrete to match the generous ground level deck. This is but the beginning of the theme work of course.
