We’ve had some changes around here lately. A big storm came through a couple of weeks ago and took off another chunk of our tree, so we had to give up and have it removed. It was very sad; that tree was really well-placed and looked great, and the garden looks much poorer for its absence.
Also, it’s time to repaint the house! We got a recommendation for a good crew of painters and they just started work on the house a day or so ago. So far they’re doing great work, and although the paint color Robin and I chose is not wildly different than what we had before, it’s different enough that we like it much better. It’s a warmer beige with more reddish tones than the greenish-leaning one we had before. We’re also going to a dark brown for the door and accents rather than black, and a nice light trim color.
Here are some photos of the havok going on in our yard:
