I still can't determine what color it is though. Depending on the light and time of day it looks gray, green, brown. It's a camouflage. That's why I like it, it blends in with the woods and does not stick out. We were able to get some trim put on the front windows and on the edging. People forget that a small trim can add a nice finished look to a house.

How many of you are excited?!  (and reading this....) We also got a matching microwave.   See how the curve of the glass matches the stove? Fridge is a Whirlpool Gold (GX5FHTXV) with an interior water dispenser and an...

In the home stretch

The home is almost done.  There are a few minor things that need to be done, and I  decided I want to paint upstairs, well not me, but I want the upstairs painted.  I certainly can't do it as well as the painter can. He is amazing. He doesn't use tape or anything, just a steady hand.  It is inspiring.    '
