This week the stairs project was completed. Yay!
Looking up at the stairs from our chairs by the creek, it looks like a long way to climb.
Can’t even see all the landings from this angle.
From upstream a bit, it’s easier to see the entire stairway.
There are four landings separating the individual sets of stairs. The middle one is large enough for a bench or small table and chairs, and will be a great place for spring bird watching.
Comfortable chairs sit next to a couple of large cedar trees, and have a view of the creek.
The chairs are in a very shady spot, and also catches the breeze which flows with the water.
We did some qiqong exercises by the creek for the first time this week. It was extremely relaxing. Here’s a link to the movie I made this week.

So now we can start the next projects. We have two exterior doors sitting on the front porch, along with two mini-split heat pumps which will provide us with a more efficient and much quieter air conditioning for the house. One is for the main living area and one is for the bedroom, giving us the option to have the two spaces at different heating/cooling levels.
We just found out the windows should be available for delivery next week, probably very late in the week, from Home Depot. So that’s convenient! Hopefully the bathroom remodel will be done by the time the windows get here and our contractor friends and dive right into the exterior of the house.
Getting much closer to being finished with the work we have planned, at least in our heads if not in actual point of fact.
And in October we will have a stand-by propane generator installed which will be strong enough to run the entire house during extensive power outages, which have been known to happen around here. The longest one recently was a few years ago; the power was out for eight days because this end of the county is at the end of the road, so to speak.
Wow, this looks incredible! Not sure how I’d do with all the critters but sure does look relaxing!
