June 13th - Celebrate!

Cathi and I bought some property in the mountains, it's a little half-acre with a giant oak tree and some granite boulders. Escrow closed this week and so we took a bottle of champagne and a couple glasses to celebrate. It was nice to get out of the valley and into some cooler weather.
You can go here to see a snapshot of us in front of our oak tree.

Woohoo!!!

PS: unsharp mask.

Thanks, Northstar! It's a nice place, too bad there are no standing stones here though... We do have some nice granite boulders and a friggin' huge oak tree!

Thanks, Russ! We're thinking of building probably in three to five years. Maybe later, it depends on finances. The location is just beautiful and that oak tree is to die for!

Congratulations! I always admire those that have a dream, and go for it. Looks like a lovely spot to out up a house. Planning on construction soon, or sometime down the road?
