It's so flat! If memory serves me, it was quite a bit bumpier when I was there... The windows and trim look great and sure make a big difference.Lynnettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459520887792560982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-18530294430850760152009-04-12T16:16:00.000-07:002009-04-12T16:16:00.000-07:00I imagine you don't have much time to weave with a...I imagine you don't have much time to weave with all the work going on at your house. House and surround area is beautiful. Sorry you had to lose so many trees. New windows are wonderful, keep out the cold and let in more light. Great pictures.bspinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11385723696922637454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-74187862594394833232009-04-12T11:14:00.000-07:002009-04-12T11:14:00.000-07:00Falling trees are a frightening thing.

You'll like having the open spaces, it will allow you to see the beauty of the forest through the proverbial trees.<BR/>Don't dogs have that message system down! ;-)Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574936988046982209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-45548543570741818242009-04-12T02:37:00.000-07:002009-04-12T02:37:00.000-07:00The new window looks super.You still seem to have ...The new window looks super.<BR/><BR/>You still seem to have a few lovely trees around, I'm sure extra sunlight is some compensation for the change of view. Would it be feasible to plant smaller trees, like ornamental maples, sorbus, or small growing cherry trees?Dorothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06488670649558382921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-34531274371715332232009-04-11T13:56:00.000-07:002009-04-11T13:56:00.000-07:00Love the expression "p-mail"!!

I'll have to amuse Jim by saying that next time Bailey checks out what's going on that same way!!<BR/><BR/>Those are big trees to have falling unexpectedly!! We had a few little trees (maybe 6 inches in diameter and 30 feet high) snap near their crowns in the ice storm in December, and that was kind of loud and scary. So big trees like that would have definitely made my heart race!<BR/><BR/>Having more light at the house definitely makes winter more bearable! Have you noticed a big difference since you had the tree work done?<BR/><BR/>I'm amazed that you got anything weaving related done during the window upheaval. And that you sound so game about the upcoming repairs!<BR/><BR/>You live in a beautiful spot. All of those trees are so gorgeous....I live surrounded by trees too. I love looking out at them, even though every few years we have to remove a few due to damage or lightning. (We still have a lot left).<BR/><BR/>No need for your blog to be all weaving all the time!! (At least that's the motto I blog by!)<BR/><BR/>SueLife Looms Largehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05522897791564181980noreply@blogger.com
