Blizzard?
By Chris Stout-Hazard
State of the world this minute: Buck is covered in snow - we just got back from chasing each other around the property. Roger's searching for suitable containers for some indoor plants we'll be adding to the living room. I'm listening to Belle and Sebastian, because it's good snowstorm music.
We dodged a bit of a bullet with the snow. While we did get about a foot last night, it's light, fluffy, manageable stuff. And certainly not the four feet that fell elsewhere in New England.
Buck and I did a little bit of exploring today. Here are some photos from our adventure.
Clockwise from top: the abandoned Empire Hotel; Buck chasing after a ghost; a summer residence; sun setting through our pine trees and a neighboring house; Buck thinks there's a bone buried under that drift; afternoon shadows on the snow; caved-in roof (or luxurious skylight)
Until tomorrow,
Chris

With most luxury furniture companies, only a fraction of each dollar you spend is actually used to build your sofa. Let's look at just a few of the other things you're paying for when you shop with big retailers.
A cute, 160-year old Italianate Victorian had the potential to be a stunning garden house - but only after taming the garden, adding style to the porches, and applying some unexpected new colors.
The center hall of our 160-year old Italianate Victorian didn't have a lot going for it, but we maximized it with color, some amazing custom wallpaper, and lighting from our line.
Here are some snapshots Chris took during our trip to New York. If you look closely, you'll find Roger making a cameo in one of the photos.
Paint, lattice, and a nail gun turned this sunny but boring room into a master retreat.
