Question: Will anyone read an architecture / cycling / global warming / peak oil / housing bubble bursting blog? Answer: Don't care, therapy is therapy. Looks like it's gonna be a long hard slog, uphill, into the gale, with rusty gears and a bad attitude.

Serious Pride of Place
The character of the place is beginning to show through... and this is just the FRONT facade. We're still awaiting stone wainscoting, stone column bases, an Arts & Crafts mahogany wood door, cedar siding shingles on the gable ends, stain on all posts, beams, fascia boards and soffits, two colors of paint on the siding and trim, and actual decking on the actual front porch. Oh yeah, and much more!
My best girl calls the front facade "imposing," but I (and I suspect the client) prefer "masculine" and "robust." If nothing else, the house is being build with some serious solidity and attitude.
I try to work as little as possible, but when I do, I bill at $75 an hour. I'm worth more, but illegal immigrants are holding down wages. And yeah, that's a picture of me... only I'm taller and younger. You want to believe me, don't you?
