Bob and I are starting a series of on-going House Projects. This serves double-duty in terms of simply sprucing up the house and yard, but it also establishes our entire property as an art project. I am thinking of places like the fabulous Watts Towers or the place in France that a former postal worker spent years creating a fantasy environment. (Does anyone out there happen to remember who or where this was?)
So in keeping with this theme, here is an inaugural project- mulching the strip of ground along side the house and driveway (where a few daffodils are appearing) with white quartz rocks. I collect these stones, both large and small, while on walks with Jules or at the horse farm where Crisco the Stallion lives. Bob uses the quartz in his sculpture and this provides him with an overflow bed of available stones. It will also serve to brighten that side of the house as the outdoor light is out and we're unsure of where exactly the switch for it is. But at least the door works better thanks to Bob's intervention!
