The primary reason for our trip was to make progress on our little building. We managed to get some siding on and took Happy Days' (thanks Deb) advice and tried earth tones. Yonderosa Green and Greener
The Soffit on the Eves and Gable Ends turned out great, still have the Porch Soffit to do.
Two more Windows! Besides a great view we watched Deer feeding in the meadow, a Coyote hunting down by the Kirby Creek and enjoyed a Sky full of Stars though them. Sitting behind them enjoying a wonderful meal and a glass of wine is more proof, Life IS Good.
There were distractions... While the Turkeys were not in the mood to play the Trout were eager to maul my flies. You should have seen the one that got away...
The trailer worked great. Over 600 miles of shuttling tools and materials - zero problems.
Weather - Always adding spice to experience. We had Sun, Rain, Snow, Wind and Frost, sometimes in the same day. It was nice to have a cozy place to retreat to and actually enjoy the variety.

It all looks pretty good to me. I really like your place. The shack, scenery and all. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteOH! You can't call his little "Love Nest" a shack!! Good Grief Hermit! What were you thinking!! I really, really like the Yonderosa Green! Perfect color for it's surroundings!!and I like the roof - really pretty. Your views are just breath taking. What a wonderful view to wake up to and watch the evening fall and then sit and watch the stars pop out at night. On our porch, at our Mountain house I placed a sign I found that reads "Can't Get Better Than This"...and it's so true - if I find another one I'll send it to you...debbie.
ReplyDelete(it's really looking GOOD!)
I like the green color too. Great series of photos. It gives us a good look at what's going on at the Yonderosa. Good work!
ReplyDeleteWhat an absoutely beautiful view...and the colors couldn't have worked out better!
ReplyDeleteDitto on the above comments. While we are not exactly stuck in suburbia here, we are anxious to get to our favorite spot for the first time this year. Not quite like the luxury you have at your place... but we love it there. It is elk calf drop time at the cabin we frequent and it is great to be there to see the new calves.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that the trailer worked well for you. Can one person open and unfold it and also put it away?
2 Tramps, One person can fold and unfold pretty easy. It has a little retractable wheel for the purpose that works well, on pavement at least. Elk would be the one critter that would make the Yonderosa perfect. They are infrequent visitors to the valley east of us.
