UPDATE 12/17/08: We hardly ever get snow here… and any snow that doesn’t melt immediately is quite the novelty. We have about 4″ from last Sunday’s storm… and it’s been snowing all morning on Wednesday. Should get another 4-6″ by tomorrow, and more (possibly another 12″) is expected this weekend! I know this doesn’t sound like much to you mid-western folks, but there’s a layer of ice under all this white fluff. I can’t get off the hill (I might be the only person in East County that doesn’t have 4-wheel drive!) It’s so beautiful, but I’m getting a little cabin fever. I’ll post more pictures after the storm passes.

WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?!
Steve – Writes commercials, plays drums and tennis (often with vintage rackets), and digs MCM style.
Haley – Is an amazing graphic designer and lady-boss, is developing an obsession with travel, puts up with noisy band practices, and also digs MCM style.
Steve was born in SoCal, raised in NorCal and has lived in the Great Pacific Northwest for many many years. Haley was born and raised nearby in NE Portland.
Together they’re attempting the seemingly impossible; to bring this great house back to its MCM Grandeur and raise two nutty kids (who are now adults!) …and not drive each other crazy in the process!
Life is kooky, but always a fun adventure!
PLAN B… THE TRAILER
Just in case the whole home restoration thing doesn’t work out! We have a ’56 Airstream Safari that we’re restoring in our spare time. 🙂
