Making a little more progress on the backyard. Major clean up, installed more landscape lighting and one small water feature (still one more large water/fire feature to install and one to disassemble and repair). Still looking for a sound system to pipe in some Hawaiian music to round out the vibe.

This footage is a little dark since it was a late night decision to shoot it. Please bear in mind that I make no claims to cinematic expertise on any level what so ever.

Thank you, sir. It's still a work in progress, but it's coming along.

Finally got a sliding door project finished for the master bedroom. We had curtains serving
the purpose for a while before I decided to put forth a little effort. My wife loves our California
sunsets over the ocean, so I decided to give her a miniature version complete with a beach,
seagulls and a wind-blown palm tree.




Here's a little detail of the design. I'll never claim to be an artist, but she likes it.







The wife likes seahorses. When I spotted this door handle on eBay, she directed
me to buy it with a very spirited tone. Her command is my wish.





My version of distressed "live edge" wood used as a detail behind the door track.

Wow! Very impressive. I can't show my wife any of this, because I can't seem to get anything done! I start a lot of stuff, but not good at finishing. Beautiful work. Let me know if you make it to the east coast.
