We've been blessed with the perfect summer to build our new house. Spring was wet and although not enjoyable it was the perfect weather to put in and pack the huge amounts of fill we needed. As we started in on the house the weather turned dry and warm. The summer weather continued into September as well allowing us to finish our work on the outside of the house.

Now the weather is cooling, still nice and warm in the daytime, but not until the morning fog burns off. This morning as I came out to the shop the vista was surreal with the fog obscuring the bottom of the mountain. The sky was clear and blue. I snapped this picture from my studio deck.

This will be the very same view we will get to enjoy from the new house patio in a few short months. It will be living the dream.
