have you seen this?

I'm not sure if I've ever posted pictures of our new home, taken in early February.

Here's the front, cropped badly. I'd take a better one but hobbitt has the camera.

There's nothing wrong with the garage door. I just Photoshopped my ass out of it, poorly. The other person is our realtor.

And a closeup of the entryway, which is pleasing to me.

The narrow window on the left is hobbitt's office. The larger windows on the right are the guest room. Come visit!

picked a good one, the hobbits did.

that entryway design really works in the outdoors, open spaces motif. you found a nice place.

so how many and what kind of trees?

Yoda, uh, nook, the trees out front are black alder. I will be planting tons of salal beneath so we won't have to look at their constant shedding (we're littered with leaves right now) or deal too much with their sticky spring droppings. The back is pretty open, though there are 10 or so Leyland Cypress around the perimeter. It's a blank slate for me. I'm looking at the salals, native lilacs, and laurel for quick screening, and working up a plan for a large bed to the left of the driveway. Luckily, the past few days have been so fine that I have a grip on the amount of sun each area gets. Too bad I don't have money right now!

Alder? That's what they smoke all that wonderful salmon with.

Yum!

my grandparents lived in grays harbor, down the coast from you. gram used to say it was the one and only perfect place in the world to really grow spectacular rhodies. they are more than likely to become a wall of vegitation if not tended, but they sure are beautiful in the spring.
