the house on the hill...




is at lock up now. is all insulated and cosy and warm. looks a bit like it stands on matchsticks. is all clad on the outside and lined on the inside. is an island in a sea of mud. had to sacrifice its veggie patch to make way for the rainwater tank. is the number one conversation topic with my beloved. is bathed in delicious northern light. is generating its own solar power. has a carport right at the back door, perfect for rainy days. has been occupying a whole lot of my thoughts and time lately. has an old boat out the back to keep the kids entertained. is feeling good.

    The house on the hill looks dreamy. Jealous. And a boat out the back. Lovely.

    Ah yes, Ken Done's colours are for happy people.

    Look at that. You have a house!
    ...and I think I'm going to get the Josh Pyke song in my head all day now...although his house was in the middle of the hill.

    The house on the hill sounds absolutely amazing. We just moved into our own new-to-us home and it feels great. We have a carport too - I never even thought about how wonderful that will be for rainy days!

    The inside is looking amazing with the cathedral ceilings. I can't get over how amazing that view it and the corrugated colourbond fits right into the landscape. Can't wait to see more xo
