I’ve busy the last few days.
I got an idea… that’s always trouble.
Anyway, I decided to build a house. I started out with a prefab, but changed it completely. I might as well have started from scratch. There is nothing left of the original. It’s been a lot of fun. I make a change here and that inspires a change there. I ended up with this modern style house:
It’s still a work in progress. It will never be done. I like to change colors, or add a deck here or there. There’s a living room and a bedroom, two decks, a swimming pool. At least that’s what’s there as I write this. An hour from now it could be completely different.
Here’s a picture of Pete relaxing in the living room at night…
One of my inspirations for this house is Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater in Bear Run, PA. I’ve always like his houses and was fortunate enough to have lived in an area of the country not far from many homes designed by him. Hmmm… maybe I’ll take out the pool, put in a small waterfall, and have a stream running under one of the cantilevered decks… just like Fallingwater.
I’ve got to stop thinking.
