Sailing on the Canal
We went sailing the other week with our landlords. A very nice perk! We went along the canal and out towards Green Bay.
Stone cliffs. There's a lot of granite cliffs all around us.
It was a beautiful relaxing afternoon. And so nice to see the area from a water view point.
One of the many light houses along the penninsula. This one you can stay in and it's haunted! I'm going to try to set something up for Halloween.
The main industry here in town is the shipping yards. These cargo ships are just being stored for now and they are....
HUGE!
Stone Harbor, one of the many resorts that are locate along the penninsula. This day they had live music we could hear from the water front.

The marina for our neighborhood. If we had a boat it would be here.

So here are some of the projects we've completed for Addison's room so far. Thank goodness for Ryan, he's been painting the heck out of all my projects...with few complaints. First up a little side table I found at a furniture store for $21. The before...
And after.
The top. I origionally wanted to upholster under the glass but couldn't find any fabric I loved. For now a scrapbook paper will have to do. I am still on the hunt for some contemporary lattice fabric and I may add a band of color around what is now the paper part. The front might also get a band of color under the tray top.
I really wanted to incorporated this story my Grandpa would always tell us kids. He would only ever tell us this one so when I found this great pair of fillagree mirrors I knew what to do. And thanks to my mom I had a Cricket waiting in the closet to cut some vinyle with.
I'll post pictures of both of them once they are all hung on the wall. Notice the lovley ship border in the background, that is coming down shortly.
And coming shortly...the after of the dresser/changing table.
