The House That Teeth Built

The blue colonial home from a few posts back was where these people first lived. You know, busylizzy's dentist. This photograph does not do this home justice. It is first rate and the gardens in the rear of the property are beautifully done with many exotic and rare trees. This was the last home that I painted when it was 'new construction'. That was many years ago. Since then, I have specialised in re-decoration. We did re-decorate this home about two years ago and "it was like deja vu all over again." (to quote Yogi Berra) The difference was this time there were no other workers in the house to trip over, but there was furniture to move. Also, the lady of the house was home some of the time and we always have really good conversations about all sorts of things. I just realised that one might get the impression, from reading all of these "Homes I Know" posts, that I do more visiting than working. I am one of those rare individuals who can work and talk at the same time. I can put either on 'auto pilot'. :) These are two people who are intelligent, articulate and unique in many aspects of their lives, and I like them a lot.
