You know what, I'm having problems​
thinking about my new bedroom, and​
whether or not it looks best in the day ...​
.​
.​
... as opposed to the nightime.
.​
.​
.​
Also, I have this little patch of grass, and grass is notoriously difficult to take care of.​
.​
.​
Uh, I don't know ...
Maybe I shouldn't get this house,​
but it does have a killer dungeon/wine cellar!​

hopefully we will find more places. It's hard to take good pictures though as the marine layer we have in our town.
