About Me:

I am an avid gardener and love to be outside as much as I can. I also like home improvement projects and have tackled quite a few in my day.

Favorite area of home improvement:

I am currently working on the endless job of scraping the peeling paint from my front deck. Then I will be repainting it a color similar to the back deck that I stained last year. I am also dedicating a new garden that I started last fall into a butterfly and hummingbird habitat.

Headboard turned garden bench
