Garden Updates: April 11th

Camellias

Solomon's Seal

Hydrangeas - a pleasant surprise from the old owners

Azaleas all in bloom

Leyland Cypress "Screen"

5 Leyland Cypress trees are in the ground.  The distance between them represents the space they'll eventually fill up. 

These trees will form a fantastic background to our garden. 

Partaay March 31st

 Poston Brown Project played on our deck for Joey's 30th.

The first arrivals 

Rockin out like a bunch of superstars 

My solo shots of each band member got interrupted by foul weather rolling in

Dining Room: "Leather" Chairs and Rug

Original horsehair backs were wonderful but boxy - we swapped them out for more functional fill 

 Gorgeous Texture

Beautifully crafted without any nails - just wooden pegs worked into the design at the joints

 The neat, tidy webbing beneath the chair is far from the unsightly practices used today and therefore requires no hiding.

There's only one heart on the rug but it's right at the center of one of the short sides
