I can’t tell you how grateful I am that Colleen brought her camera and shared her great photography with me and you!
From a utility standpoint, the lights are great, because they allow me to stay up and read or just contemplate my next project. But they look so cute from outside! I so much wanted to share a photo with you because I think it looks charming or enchanted.
Do you agree?
Thanks again Colleen for sharing the day and your skills! xo L
My girlfriend Colleen Murphy was out to visit THO today. We have not seen one another in a long time, but we stay in touch. Colleen is a very talented artist and amateur photographer. It was wonderful to spend the day with my kindred friend.
She took and shared some beautiful photos which I will be posting over the next days.
I am standing here in the sacred grounds, can you find the warrior peaking out of the sun? This photo is NOT edited in any way at all.
I love the way the inhouse looks when the afternoon sun flows in!
My cousin Vernie biscuited a joint for the last cupboard door which is a triangle.
I am doing some other finishing over the next day or two.
I am really pleased with the way that this turns out.
I took the day off yesterday. Spent the day with my dad’s side of the family at the Sands Mud bog, North of Battersea. Talk about a total hoot! It is a family/community event that is held every year. It was the first time that I have been able to make it back and I can tell you that I am not missing it again unless I am too old to get into the back of a truck! The family and thier community are just so much fun!
Lots of people – a beer or two were enjoyed. The laughter was as loud as the trucks in the bog.
Sadly, I forgot my camera so I had to steal a couple of pics from my cousin A. Hope that is groovy with her as a truck tire in the bog. The John Deere truck is her baby. She is a dead awesome bogger! Uncle Steve would be huge proud! I have to tell you that it makes me really sentimental. I am thinking that the rainbow that popped up just as the bog ended was more than a little symbolic.
Thanks to my cousin B and C who hosted this brilliant event! Glad to be invited!
After the mud bogs I went to another family event (Mom’s side). While there, I mentioned that I had enjoyed a totally awesome day at the mud bogs. A lady who was there stuck up her nose and said “I don’t see the point, this is a stupid thing to do, it just ruins the soil in the bog, so loud, so futile… blah, blah, blah”. I was not prepared for anyone to be such an argumentative, negative, arse-pick. Seriously… with the way that the land is being taken over by housing? A mud bog does significantly less damage than one single McMansion and I can assure you that this one gave pleasure and a community event for about a hundred or more people… hard for a person as uptight as that to understand laughter and community participation is my guess?
You can’t make everyone happy and I have to say that if I am picking who to have fun with… well you know the answer, I am getting in the truck going to Battersea and I am wearing my rubbers too.
I wonder what the other Tiny Housers did this weekend?
