WE HAVE A DRIVEWAY!

One thing has always concerned us over the years. If you ever visited you know the parking is almost non-existent and the driveway was dangerously close to the crest of the hill making it difficult to back out. Well, problem solved! Not only is there parking for at least 4 cars including under the car port but the driveway no longer requires four wheel drive. The sharp hill has been grated and the vegetation is cleared as well as dug out to create a small parking lot. Our friend Chris returned w/ his back hoe and not only has landscaped w/ the back fill but created the most beautiful boulder wall around the area. At long last Colleen can feel safe parking and driving on to the property. Yippee! Check out the photo's at right and also see the fireplace installed, the plumbing started and the french doors in place. In yet another sleepless night Colleen came up w/the idea of a wet bar for the upstairs great room! A small sink and small frig will keep drinks and clean up easy for those pool games, video games or movies. No excessive running up and down the stairs! Also in the pictures is the attempt to capture the new view out of the master bathroom looking at Cascade Head. The view of the Head from the head as cousin Karen says!!! This week the plummer continues the rough in and Arne begins the electrical. What a birthday gift for Colleen last Saturday as she got to pick out all the plumming fixtures. Oil brushed bronze was the favorite and the manager just insisted on giving us huge discounts for our business!! Stay tuned for more updates. The insulators are ready once the rough in is ready, it's up to the plummer and Arne now!
