Are we there yet?

  • How about a little history.
    I started this blog in 2003. It was to be all about our experience in house building. It's been an amazing journey. Sometimes I look around and I can't believe we acutally built this house and when I say we I mean we. Myself, my husband, his cousin Russ, our Dads and assorted friends and other relatives. We did hire a contractor to pour our foundation and we had a horrible experience with some drywallers but otherwise it was all us. We have been in the house now for one year. There are still a lot of details to finish up. I have some guilt about not posting house projects since I am a member of a house blog ring but there is a lot of valuable information on house building here so while my posts are more about living in our dream house you can still search my archives for posts on every aspect of house building. So? Are we there yet? Nearly. We still need doors and trim inside.......some flooring and tiling needs to be done so stay tuned-we'll get there.

Pacific Coast Vacation

Gull_walking

My Christmas present from my husband was a four day trip of the Washington coast and rain forest.  We went through Quinault, crescent lake, Kalaloch, Ruby beach and La Push.  Part of the gift was that we got to take the dogs.  We had to pay $12 per night per dog but it was worth it.  They had so much fun and we had fun taking them on the hikes.  I put an album together of of pictures here

The weather couldn't have been better.  We actually had the storm watching package at the Kalaloch lodge but the storms were the week before.  We had sun and dry weather the entire time.  Anyway, I hope you enjoy the photos.

Boy did you EVER luck out with the weather! I'm trying to think of the last time I've seen sun four days in a row....I do recall a very cold/crispy week a while back, but I was up to my eyeballs with work and hardly noticed. Stunning photos! Makes me want to be there Right Now, because the up-to-the-eyeballs thing is still happening and will for as far out as I can see.
