Well, I'm finally getting around to setting up this blog so that I can share the progress at "Hope Cottage" (Susie Reid says I have to name my home, so that name seemed fitting). So, I'm sitting in Starbucks in Barrington, RI -- after a dentist appointment (I broke a tooth at the Ice Cream Social a couple weeks ago on some frozen M&Ms).
Today at 1PM, we close on my purchase of the lot next door. It's exciting that I'll now be able to have a garden right outside my kitchen door (well, really, a few feet from it). Pictures will follow. Billy Silvia is set to begin clearing the property as soon as the papers are signed--that will open up my view to the north and I'm looking forward to seeing just how far I'll be able to see once the trees in the front of the lot are down.
More soon,
Hope
