Front Yard on a Cloudy and Humid Summer Morning
Cloudy morning but this allowed the house to be photograped without shadows. The dewpoint is supposed to be 76 today.

Surveyor Drama
I talked to Deb who told me the surveyor came to determine exactly where her property lines are. She talked to her contractor who said he talked to the surveyor who said that Deb's property line goes right up to our retaining wall. Based on where the stake is I would think the wall goes over the property line a bit. Deb also told me she talked to Jim (our neighbor on the other side) who said he found the surveyor digging up part of the concrete on the corner of his driveway. When Jim confronted him, the surveyor said he was just trying to find the stake marking Jim's alley property line so he could use it to measure to Deb's alley property line. I would think he could've asked Jim for permission. Anyway, part of the concrete was all dug up and the surveyor is refusing to pay for the damage. What a skunk.

The Garage - Summer 2011 Part 2
When we bought the house the garage window had a board behind the panes of glass. I spray painted the board blue; my thought being that it would call to mind a blue sky being reflected in the glass.
The Garage - Summer 2011
Hopefully, within the next 2 or 3 years we'll have a new garage. Photos taken yesterday.

Property Lines
The surveyors came to determine Deb's property lines. The stake marks the spot. I think our retaining wall goes over the line a bit although it's hard to tell from the angle I took the photo.

Deb's Porch Part 2
Gone! They knocked it down this morning and boy were they fast. Deb showed me a computer generated picture of what it will look like when rebuilt. She's going for a smaller mud room rather than a new porch.
