Can You Say FLAT!!


Our land is FINALLY FLAT!!!!! Lots of rain have kept the excavating guys from being able to knock down our ridge. I got a call from my dad after school saying it was flat. So I rushed over to see. I now keep a pair of rubber boots in my trunk. You never know when you may need them. I have had to find time to run home to change many times. It's hard to walk up there in heels plus I'd ruin them. 


It's hard to tell but the far left side goes out farther. That is where Kev will put his shop. As you can see the front yard will slope off considerably.

For the most part, I will keep all of this wooded. I eventually plan to clear the underbrush, but not anytime soon. I have a house to build and a wedding to plan. Landscaping can come later.
The sunrise on my way to work yesterday. So amazing!!

You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
