The weather has left us without many tasks this week.  Our drywall guy is in the house so there is little for us to do in there.  The soil has turned to the consistency of cream cheese which negated the possibility of laying the patio or placing the retaining walls, so we have turned to paint.  It doesn’t seem like it should be that big of a deal, but man!  We are finding this task ridiculously time consuming!  We thought we had it figured out with this combination:

We are still dissatisfied and combing through neighborhoods to find the perfect combination of greens and light trim.  So onward we march…
