I am going to weed and spread wood chips today and I hope I will smell like dirt by supper time. via

Delightful Garden Shed
I can tell these carriage doors haven't been opened recently so there must be another way to get inside this wonderful outbuilding. via Pinterest
The Wrecking Ball arrives at 1887 house
I've been photographing quite a bit from my car recently and was sad to see the demise of this grand old gilded age mansion built in 1887 just up the street from my cottage. The house was struck by lightening several years ago and was completely destroyed inside. A builder finally bought it and a new house will be built on the site. Yesterday the house was half gone when I drove by.
The snow is hiding the blue tarp that was covering the roof on the right side. I was hoping the landmark house would be restored but I guess it was too much of a project after the fire. Boo hoo. A man at town hall told me the old gardens in the back were being preserved and I was happy to hear that. my iPhone photos

The Advantages of a Detached Garage
LDArc Architects
Maybe we’re finally realizing the advantages of a separate garage. The extra space, lower homeowner’s insurance, and a more attractive façade are worth a few extra steps to the car or from the car to the house. image found here
On a local level, here is the best reason for a detached garage.
I took this iPhone yesterday from my car. I have no idea what caused this old post and beam barn garage fire but I'm so glad it wasn't attached to the house. my iPhone photos
Thankfully this delightful old house was spared. Where is your garage?
Happy May Day
Are you wearing your May Day flower crown? This goat looks very sweet wearing hers. Happy First of May! via
Traditional Kitchen to Love
Very nice traditional kitchen in Philadelphia. I like the arched window over the sink and everything else too. via Houzz
