Fossil in the Rock

I am not sure how many pictures of one house can be posted, but we might break the bank. We will try to stop ourselves after this post until we see some color on the house.

I guess the rain will always flow to the left as you can see, perhaps we will add rain barrels there and then we can water the lawn from all the water that will end up on that side of the house or take some baths in the rain barrels.


Inside the kitchen, back wall is where refrigerator and pantry go. See windows along the side where sink will be.


Great big long windows in the living room, they let much light filter in the house, darn hard to figure out what will cover those windows at night :)



These are the very cool windows upstairs as seen from the loft area. We will be seeing blue skies out of these babies!


For some reason we like this walkway from the kitchen to the carport. They put railing up already!


As you may know concrete floors can have ERRORS. Here is ours, beautiful aggregate and then a small area where the REBAR can be seen. Nelson was very nice and asked us if we wanted to put wood flooring in the living room to cover this up if it passed inspection. It did pass inspection and we decided to leave it alone, no wood floors in the living room to cover the aggregate. It just gave it a little character, kind of like a fossil in the rock.



Those are some pretend stairs there leading up to the loft and master bedroom. Cant wait to see real ones.

Thats it for this week's installment of "How many pictures of one house can you post".

yeah, your aggregate looks good...it would be crazy to cover it! Like you, I'm more amused by unusual things that are unique in our house, rather than wanting to change it. And with a floor showing all kinds of aggregate and specks and stuff...what's a little dash gonna matter?
Afterall, if you look REALLY REALLY hard to the left of our front door, you'll see our initials and a heart carved into the cement.
We screw with OUR concrete on purpose.
Hopefull, if we ever sell, the new owners will not have OCD...or this will drive them batty.

Unless, of course, they have the same initials as us.

I told Deborah that we should get “some artist type” to paint the metal bone into a fossil. I’m thinking like a little fish bone or some type of dinosaur. :)
