A Guest on the Deck

This Praying Mantis was sunning himself on the railing today.
He did a little wandering....
and then John got up closer...
and a little closer.  He's always welcome in our yard!

Bob Johnson Habitat "Hospitality House" - April 27, 2016



 Bob Johnson "Hospitality House"
 April 27, 2016


This wonderful house is the culmination of two+ years of discussions, fundraising, building and working alongside wonderful Habitat Staff, multitudes of diverse volunteers and incredible homeowners.  Such a blessing it has been for John and I to have shared this grand experience with so many wonderful folks.  The best part, however, was watching Bob Johnson’s vision of Hospitality where all are welcome coming alive at the worksite.  Truly Awesome!

Wonderful added edging feature with the bricks.
Backyard cleared of stumps and rubble.  Great place for Samuel to play!
Raised bed ready for planting -- made from scrap lumber!
