Name:
Location: Arizona, United States

Welcome to my site. I will be Chronicling the construction of our new home. Here is a brief history of my experiance in this area. I moved every few years as a child. As an adult I stayed in one house for 25 years, but helped remodel it four times. From a minor bath redo to adding an entire second story to the house. Now my husband and I have moved to AZ to care for my elderly parents and are undertaking to be the owner/builders of a custom home. Some people don't like change but I guess I'm not one of them. Or perhaps it is just limited change I like. To my husband's current dismay I helped build a 4000 square foot house in Romania in 2001. We took it from slab to fully furnished in 11 days. I therefore have meager patience for the pace of building here in Arizona.

Still Working

Well it is the first of January 2007 so time to bring this site up to date. We have been in the house over a year now and the work goes on. The pictures below show some of the projects Dave (and Nick) have been working on. The big rain storm this summer really made our paint on the house look bad so we are expecting the painters to redo it any time now. (Of course the day it was scheduled last week, we had rain and snow!!) We also had garage cabinets built last week and prior to that we painted the garage floor. We almost have the whole garage back in order. But we took a break to go on a New Years Day hike with a bunch of friends. I got to use my new hiking poles--really useful when the legs get tired! Maybe tomorrow we'll finish and get some other photos.
We saw three coyotes and shortly after, three white tailed deer just up the street from us on the 26th. And nine javelinas raiding the neighbors' trash cans the next day so the wildlife is still abundant. Wishing you all a wonderful year in 2007.
