Beautiful Fall Colors

This is where we stay during our vacations to Crystal Lake, WI. It's a beautiful area with a lot of trees and crystal clear water.


On Saturday night Rick's Mom and Sister came for a quick visit on their way to Arizona. We were excited to give them a tour. Rick's Mom came through in May before we had the roof on the house. It looks very different now. Rick has begun to unpack his ducks and shore birds.

Zoey's Perch

When we started this journey we struggled to communicate with our builder and others what our vision was for the office and great room. We came up with Zoey. We wanted the stain to be Zoey. It took a few tries but look and see if you agree that we did it!
We wondered how long it would be before Zoey figured out that the window seat would become her perch to see what's going on in the front yard. Nothing gets past her.

Here kitty-kitty

OK- so I admit I'm a city girl and I'm going to require some wilderness training. Rick and Zoey- well mostly Zoey, really enjoy watching the turkeys each day make the trip across our back yard.

The Parade of Homes ended on Sept 27. Our vendors had signs up and down both sides of the driveway. That evening we began the moving process.
