home

Every now and again I plan to simply post a photo, perhaps with a few words, showing a favorite place in or around our home..... a place that somehow defines home for me.

For now, the porch~ this corner of the porch in particular, with the hammock chair and plants, where Claire and I like to hang out.  It is perhaps her favorite vantage point for watching the trash truck drive around on Tuesdays..... how's that for an image of calming and peaceful, eh?  Yep, my girl loves her some trucks.  Big time.  The porch isn't entirely sunshine and roses though, as we still need to address some lead paint, but we are aware of where it is (and where it isn't) and keep a close eye on the little miss while she explores.  Soon, hopefully, we'll be able to address this last bit of worrisome lead paint and be able to embrace more of the charming characteristics of an almost 90 year old home instead of worrying about some of the less than endearing ones.

cheers from this homebody~
