Pavilion turned Small Cottage


Hello friends , sorry we have been busy, mostly my husband. My handy husband is busy everyday building this small space. I am pretty sure my youngest son Jason will be living here.

Our little cottage is coming along.  My husband Paul is building it himself. He tells everyone I am the supervisor.

This particular day the skies are so pretty and blue.

There is a path to this building, complete with landscape lighting. It is surrounded by large rocks.  The squirrels have made their home under the rocks.

The framing is taken place.  There will be 3 windows.



Here is a  rough framed window opening. A view of the sand volleyball court.


Our new driveway is all finished. We are waiting for the wrought iron fencing to be installed next week.  The gate and the fencing were bought on an online auction.

I am getting my dining room ready for the Halloween Tablescape Blog Hop on October 11th.  I am also hosting a Halloween Costume luncheon for the cloggers a little later in October.

  1. That is fabulous Linda! Do squirrels nest in your trees also? I've never known them to nest under large rocks. Here they build huge nests in the highest, most outreaching limbs! Seems counterintuitive but they're everywhere. Love your graphic!

    1. Squirrels make a large and loose sunning "platform" to lounge around during the day. They build a second nest for sleeping. (I read somewhere.)
