Actually, this particular fence is my favorite kind. A large portion of the back yard and into the field behind the house is being “split-railed” to give the dogs a big area to run without being able to run away. A fine black mesh will also run the length of the fence so they can’t get through the split rail. Sounds unattractive but it’s almost undetectable unless you’re right next to it.
In the above picture you can see the old well, re-installed and almost complete…
The backyard is shaping up quickly, Mike’s done a great job laying it out and getting it done. He’s got significant motivation, you know…. he’s trying to avoid muddy dogprints tracked in from the yard and so he wants that grass to GROW… like YESTERDAY. My transplanted perennials are still happy, so I think they’ll live.
Kitchen is coming together…..
A few more lights installed…
And today we start moving boxes over to the cellar….. ooooooh joy.
I love the hot fixture. Very retro.
Getting close… looking good!
Great faucet fixture….. We put in a split rail around our property when we lived in Maryland. LOVED IT! Ours had a wire fencing between the rails and unless you were standing close to it you didn't even notice the wire at all. Good choice!

Lookin' real good Karen!! I especially like your "little piggies" in the garden!
I really like the faucet knob. Is it two tone gold and chrome?
Nah, just Chrome, KW.
So beautiful! I don't know which would be more enticing; outside or inside!! Love the rail fence too. 🙂
Ahhh, it DOES appear to be coming together! Love the pigs running about 🙂
The kitchen is just how I imagined! Can't wait to make you feed me LUNCH!!!!!
Gosh Karen, it is just gorgeous! Every post I am simply amazed at the progress! I know you lay in bed at night and arrange furniture and decor in your dreams! I did this while we waiting to move into our farm house cottage. Five years later…I am still in love with it!
Look forward to your next post. Hurry!!!! We are waiting 🙂
xo, misha
Holy wow. That kitchen is gorgeous.
