Grass is always greener

With the earth placed overhead, and the sprinkler system installed, the grass seed is already taking root. The house really is disappearing back into the landscape.

Inside, work advances slowly on multiple fronts. Kitchen appliances came out of storage and were wrestled into place. 32” appliance into a 30” opening. Hmmm. So it goes.

The unfortunate passing of Joe was memorialized in a plaque mounted at our granite cabin. It was nice to see Joe’s daughter again up from California and to share stories of Joe. He is really missed.

Finally started the entry waterfall. Each rock gets cut at least once. They laid out to get a good flow. Then mortared into place. Lots of guessing on how the water will flow. Too little, and the rocks are dry. Too much and it splashes out to the floor making it slippery. We’ll see.
