The path

For months we've been making preparations for the path around the farmhouse. Finally it went in during the week, and this morning I get a good view of it in daylight.

Oh dear. It's the wrong colour. I mean ... it's probably the colour we chose, but it's not the colour in the colour chart, and it's not a great match for the house. If I was one of those rich people, I would rip it up and start again. But I'm not rich, and I have to live with it.

The path itself actually looks good. But it transforms the house from a farm house into ... well not quite a castle, because a castle would have a moat, but into something reasonably sofisticated.

So much for us being farmers. More like city slickers in farm clothes. Ughh.
