Gettin' the dirt OFF!

Meet my newest friend- her name is Polly Powerwasher :) She's a beauty! Gene claims I spend way too much time playing with her.

 

I just can't help myself, she is so much fun to run. I can clean things up in record time. I can't imagine how much time this thing could have saved me over my lifetime.

Gene washed the south side of the house today. The pictures don't show it very well but the difference was like black and white.

And this my friend. . . . . is one fancy patching job performed by Gram Zomer.

And finally. . . . a construction update.
I worked on painting the garage window and door trim this week and picked out paint colors for the garage, Puppy Place room and entry. They are in the process of taping and mudding the interior.

 

The patio is coming along nicely. This picture was taken a few weeks ago. Dana and Gene are toasting the first fire.

 

Alex Hofman has been working on the patio walls this week.

There will be a sitting ledge on the top of this row of rock and the pillars will have lights on them. Alex will also put some rock landscaping around the patio. We'll plant some things in the spring. Too bad the patio wasn't done sooner so we could enjoy it before it got cold.

Just a little work left to be done on the exterior.

The hot tub and Aunt Stella Rosa are calling out to me . . . .
