MidSummer's Eve - An Overgrown Yard and Space Cats






With the window treatments installed (bedrooms, kitchen, entry) and temporary measures for some other windows I decided to take an evening walk around the house to see how they looked from the outside. Naturally the cats followed me around, their eyes getting caught by the camera flash giving them eery, extra terrestrial feel. Having no money yet for landscaping, nor any great motivation to work in the heat & humidity, one can see what can happen to a yard left unattended! The area on the West side of the house has a temporary pond with tall grass which has proven to be a great place for dragonflies and frogs. Thanks to their presence mosquitoes have not been such a problem.

  1. Your blog was recommended by another "Tideland Haven" lover. We, too, are wanting to build this house on our property in Lebanon, TN. Thank you so much for posting your costs!!! We built a house outside of Houston in 2001, so here we go again in TN. We have to build a LONG driveway to our property, so that will be first. Would love to see some pictures taken from the bedroom to the back hallway/bedroom/bathroom/laundry area! Thank you so much!
