She has a white female,a brown female and a black male and is hoping to get a parti-color puppy some time. I love the standards. They are so beautiful.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02202463147917151854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300298790008212868.post-55565031954978210542007-07-31T11:52:00.000-05:002007-07-31T11:52:00.000-05:00Thanks Kitt - yeah, I hope it is a long, long time...Thanks Kitt - yeah, I hope it is a long, long time before we get rich selling this place!<BR/><BR/>Laurie & Chris - thanks for tagging me!<BR/><BR/>Lynne - porches are cool - they feel so old-fashioned - and yet very practical!<BR/><BR/>Zoey - thanks - we use the porch a lot.

Having the screens on the porch really does give us a lot more time out there.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Karen! :)<BR/><BR/>Everett - thank you for leaving a comment on the glider - I just added it to the original post. Mark couldn't remember ever hearing the whole story, so this was fun! I'm so happy you gave it to us - I really love sitting out there!<BR/><BR/>Thanks trailhead - the dogs kind of just sit there when I have the camera in hand - apparently being cute is good enough!!<BR/>Our house is a small Craftsman (or Arts & Crafts) - not high end, but well-cared for. Built around 1906, it has a ton of double-hung windows, original leaded glass windows by the fireplace, a built-in hutch, arched doorways, etc. We love it - but when we sell, it will probably be torn down.

I fixed it up in 1949 for the first time and then maybe three times later.

You are making good use of your kayaks. <BR/><BR/>I love your screened-in front porch ... what a brilliant idea for our mosquito-filled hot summer evenings. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing the story behind your porch swing.katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03979577122006222781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300298790008212868.post-3629642314200117322007-07-29T17:27:00.000-05:002007-07-29T17:27:00.000-05:00Holy cow, I don't think I've ever seen such a big ...Holy cow, I don't think I've ever seen such a big flower!Tristi Pinkstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12122250747480013804noreply@blogger.com
