My gate

Okay - I tried Photostitching - kinda small - but it was fun!! #1 photo

I bought a Southwestern style adobe (not old adobe - the new not so adobe) house. It is a nice newer house with a great view of the mountains. It's a little different than most houses here in that it is painted sage green. Most others are brown - dark and light - with some with a little red in the mix.

Our entrance is in the back. The front of our house faces the mountains and we would have less window room if they built an entrance up front. So you need to drive down the driveway to the circle behind the house - and there is the gate to the patio.

It's my favorite part of the house - maybe because there are vigas (logs), carved supports and canales.

We are considering some blue paint for the gate and around the wood border of the house. It needs paint, so we might as well spruce it up.

It was a wonderful sunny day - with not too much wind - but we were busy with taxes. We were on deductions and medical expenses. And so completes April 2, 2009.

Oh, I did break long enough to write my review/comments on Lost. http://www.iberostar.wordpress.com/
