We recently retired and set off on the adventure of building a new log home on 10.55 acres in North Country. This piece of land is part of the Adirondack State Park and includes a rear boundary along the St. Regis River and a wonderful creek (which we've named Andy's Creek because Rick's brother Andy found the land). The creek has several waterfalls, the land itself is about 4 acres of meadow and 6.5 acres of beautiful woods (most of it evergreens) complete with winding paths, and clearings to just wander through and enjoy nature.
This blog is meant to include our family and friends in this wonderful adventure. So enjoy the journey with us.
Denise...we love the snow...even more now that we have retired and no longer have to worry about "when" will it start? And will I be "making it home from work?" before it gets really bad!!!
Shelley...yes, we love the long driveway too! I'm sure the first snow for Michigan is just around the corner. Can't wait to see your pics when it happens!!!
Well yes...Rachel the hole was covered. Luckily they had finished the chimney structure the day before! So that was okay...
I am so far behind on blogging right now...We also have the kitchen cabinets installed and I can't find time to get those pics posted...and we have 2 doors in the master bedroom...Lots of progress and no time to report!
Big waves to Ellen and Michael...I've missed you both around here.
Yes, it looks just like the North Pole...send all your Santa requests here and I'll see what I can do...
Ellen...we didn't mind the snow a bit. It put both Rick and I in a great mood and we had the house to ourselves the entire day (the crew all took a "snow day") We took the dogs with us and went a this long walk through the paths. It was fantastic...

Oh how beautiful! Although, I'm not looking forward to it here in Michigan anytime soon. Hope the driving isn't too bad.
I love your long driveway! Tha snow looks beautiful - I can't wait for our first big snowfall in Michigan. (I am a total polar bear!)

Wow.. it looks So Lovely.. and So Inconvenient at the same time!
At least you got your x-mas card-design sorted out on time ;D
Okay, this looks like you live just around the corner from Santa Clause. So can I send my wish lists for him to you instead from now on? ;D
Really beautiful place, Dianne, especially when you don't need to worry as much about inconvenient snow anymore. :D
Oh wow...

LOL.. okay, me bad. I personally don't love snow as much unless I don't need to go out at all!
Glad you all love it. :)
