A fresh coat for the playhouse


I recently received a call from an old client and friend asking a special favor of me.
Our friendship spans almost 20 years.

The favor? could I paint her play house again.


How  could I refuse, even with my busy schedule I would make time.
I was honored, and so glad she asked.

I had panted the playhouse some  10 or so years ago, and probably 10 years before that.

I had a fondness for this play house and for this old friend.


I looked forward to this project, and spending time in her beautiful yard  that I had helped to design and landscape.

We had all matured 



This is the playhouses second garden, the first was a a different house. 

Built by her father, the playhouse moves when she moves.


It is now surrounded by Magnolia's, Variegated Petasities, and circular stepping stones set in creeping jenny


It now has a fresh coat of paint


10 years from now, our future is not promised, but I hope I get to paint the play house again.
This I cherish.
