Going Green

The house is 80% painted. The main color is called Villita. Not sure how that name was chosen; it's sort of a sage/avocado/putty green. It "matches" the local environment well. It's funny, I seem to have always wanted a green house with a brown roof- and finally I am getting it!

This week traveling for work I was in a conversation where we were talking about how our tastes/styles have changed- or not- through the years. I have always been drawn to the things of nature. I've gotten less "frilly" over the years, looking for cleaner, simpler lines. And now looking for lower and lower maintenance!

I had trouble getting the photos emailed from my home computer so have finally just today gotten the deck photos to my brother. along with several options as i see them for the aesthetics for the under support of the deck. We shall see.

Too much travel lately to suit me. I got home Saturday and am off again today on another trip. Summer has lost its grip, the Autumn flowers are springing up along highway 67, and crisp Fall weather is just around the corner. I planted mums on Grace Street and am keeping my eye out for a road side pumpkin sale to complete my seasonal decorations. My favorite time of year!
