This is a blog about our life long dream of building a lake house. I grew up on Lake Sunapee and Karen has spent a fair bit of time on the water kayaking, pulling me on water skis, and sipping wine with lake friends. We have friends on the lake and it has always been painfully delightful to enjoy the lake with them. There is for us, something very different about life on a lake. At 60 years of age, we go in search of it again now.

Residents NOW!!!
We have now been residents of 36 Stillwater Way for 3 weeks. Carpenters are still showing up every day but the punch list is getting shorter. We now, as of today, have a fully functioning kitchen with an oven and a microwave. Everything else was installed last week. NO MORE TAKE OUT FOR US!!! Well, at least for a while...
The deck is finished and offers fantastic views of the lake and environs. Take a look at the photos below and come visit!!! NOW we have to create memories in this house. We have had visits by several friends for dinner now and it feels great!! Put yourself among our friends and visitors.
And in case you were worried, our cat is now reunited with us and annoying me on a every night basis at 4 AM basis again. All is normal.
It is perhaps no small irony that with the impending completion of the house, I am spending more and more time in Boston at my new client. Funny how these things work out.
A special 'call out' to Deb Smith a great friend and colleague from New Brunswick Canada. She expressed confidence in our ability to pull this together by buying us the sign that states "Welcome to our lake". Thanks Deb!
Enjoy the pictures.
