Fighting the Guiberson Fire near Moorpark




Kudos to the fire dept , these guys put there lives on the line to fight Ca wildfires without these brave men I cant imagine the damage that would take place to homes and livestock , They have managed to get it 40 percent contained in two short days. This one threatened our area but I am happy to report it is now under control and our home is in no danger.


God bless our firefighters

Sept brings




Sept brings our house nearing completion well there is still a month or more to go but its all coming together rather quickly.. the heaters are going in . the shutters are being delivered and getting ready to go up. the Master bathroom has been tiled. the cabinets are up . there working amazinly fast. SOON SOON I CAN HARDLY WAIT ..

Our fountain is waiting for us


Our fountain has the sweetest sound to it. The store we purchased it from has hundreds of fountains all going at once so you really have to listen good to hear the sounds of each when deciding. its almost like musical notes. if you listen good.


Vines


This is called Winchester Honey suckle we chose this for our vines on tressels.

Other side of Yard


See below post for other side.. We are doing something very similar to this though our yard is bigger.. YAH

Yard.


This yard is the model 3 one its 40 long and 14 wide.. Our yard is bigger at 50 long and 17 1/2 wide but its similar so thought I would share it.. I think we are going to do something similar yet different there will be a fountain out from where the glass doors face and tree planted in the middle of the grass with a space around edges for shrubs and such.. Not everyone has the same taste I rather like the flow of a spacious yard. and NO I will not have a picnic table lol
