Wonderful Seaside View

What a window. What a view, almost hauntingly beautiful. Love the fishnet curtain. via

English Tudor Cottage

UPDATE: ALL OF THESE PHOTOS HAVE DISAPPEARED 
I did not save them to my computer.
With its sloping roof, stone facade and tall windows, this appealing timbered cottage looks as though it belongs in the English countryside. Total living area = 1,695 sq. ft.
The romantic feeling continues in the living room, open to the second floor, with its large raised-hearth fireplace and French doors that lead to a side patio. There are also French doors to the outside in the dining room and first-floor bedroom.
The well-equipped kitchen provides a pass-through counter to the dining room.
The upstairs loft can be closed off as a third bedroom, while the carport can easily be converted to a den, family room or an enclosed garage. Also, with correct site location, the rear of the house is suited to a greenhouse room.
Foundation: slab.

An Amazing Kitchen / Family Room Renovation in Alexandria








I am just showing a few kitchen photos of a whole house renovation in Alexandria VA by Harry Braswell Inc. More photos here.

Here Comes The Weekend

I am so glad I don't live for the weekends any more as I did when I was young. Now I even like Mondays.

Sheep at Rest on A Stone Wall

A gorgeous photo of a sheep in repose. They know how to get comfy in the most unlikely places, for sure. I am beginning to think sheep enjoy finding odd places to enjoy the view and then wait for someone to walk by and so they can pose for a picture. I'm glad this scene didn't go unnoticed. via
